Only time will tell what direction immigration law will go in. Many immigration reform groups have asked President Obama to ease the current regulations, making it easier for people to enter the United States. Many others, however, are strongly opposed to this. Complex issues like the struggling economy, violence along the border due to Mexico’s drug wars, and a fear of terrorism have motivated many people to oppose easier immigration.
In fact, immigrations laws may not just remain static. They could become much stricter if certain political groups have their way. Immigrants may lose benefits like in-state college tuition, the automatic citizenship of children born in the US, and more. Anyone who may be affected by these changes should contact immigration lawyers Rios & Wakefield, PLLC, for assistance.
