Symposium: Immigration Beyond the Headlines

The Stanford Law Review Online symposium on “Immigration Beyond the Headlines” is now available.  Here is the introduction:

From the travel ban to the separation of families at the border, immigration stories have dominated media headlines over the course of the Trump Administration. This Stanford Law Review Online symposium features legal scholarship that goes beyond the headlines and tackles important, but overlooked, immigration law issues. The seven symposium essays aim to provide key insights on the ways in which immigration law is quietly changing—and how activists, policymakers, lawyers, scholars, and judges should respond.
