We are all delighted that President Obama addressed immigration reform in his inaugural speech on January 21st. The President’s statement that, “Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity; until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce, rather than expelled from our country,” indicates that he is making comprehensive immigration reform a priority. This is welcome news and we look forward to further developments. As always, we will post the latest information regarding changes to the law and policy that benefit our clients and all of our nation’s immigrants.
