Five Years Later: Navigating The Legal Battlefield Of IRCA And Undocumented Workers’ Remedies After Hoffman (here)

William J. Simmons writes “Where there is not common ground, very recent cases have provided support for a theory that the cases can be divided – more or less – into two analytical camps, each deriving support from Hoffman: what I will call the “wrongdoer- centric” cases and the “bright line” cases. Understanding the two fundamental approaches will hopefully assist practitioners in determining which cases and arguments provide the best support for their clients, and provide an analytical framework for judges yet to consider issues of undocumented worker remedies.”

DHS Announces ICE, CBP Name Change (here)

The DHS published notice that DHS has changed the name of the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the name of the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
