AP: Judge: DACA Recipients Can Get In-State Tuition in Arizona
Posted on May 18, 2015 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney
The Associated Press reports that a judge in Arizona ruled yesterday that DACA recipients are eligible for in-state college tuition at Maricopa County colleges. In his ruling, the judge wrote, “Federal law, not state law, determines who is lawfully present in the U.S,” and because the federal government considers recipients of deferred action lawfully present, they can receive lower in-state tuition.

BIA Finds That Respondent Who Voted in a Federal Election Is Removable Under the INA
Posted on May 18, 2015 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney
In a precedent decision issued yesterday, the BIA held that a respondent who has voted in an election involving candidates for federal office in violation of 18 USC §611(a) is removableunder section 237(a)(6)(A) of the INA, regardless of whether the respondent knew that he or she was committing an unlawful act by voting. The BIA reasoned that because the respondent, an LPR who had disclosed during a naturalization interview that she had voted in an election in 2006 that included a local school board race, had intentionally voted in an election involving candidates for federal office, the general intent requirement of §611(a) was satisfied.
