Last week, the Senate passed a DHS appropriations measure that did not include the House amendments that would block DAPA implementation and DACA expansion by a vote of 68-31. Today, in a surprising move, Speaker Boehner allowed for the Senate-passed version of the DHS funding bill to be voted on in the House. The bill passed with bipartisan support in the House, 257-167 (with 75 Republicans joining 182 Democrats), and will now be sent to President Obama’s desk for his signature. The bill will fund DHS through September 2015. The bill that passed does not include language that would prohibit the implementation of the President’s November 2014 executive actions on immigration.

This Petition for Review was granted by the 9th circuit for two reasons: (1) to give the IJ and BIA the opportunity to determine the impact of various recent decisions on our client’s case and (2) because the Court agreed that the IJ and BIA decisions regarding CAT were not supported by substantial evidence.
Petition for Review Granted

The Los Angeles Times reports that beginning today, the California Department of Motor Vehicles will allow undocumented immigrants to apply for driver’s licenses and expects approximately 1.5 million applications to be filed within the first three years of the program. The article highlights the case of one immigrant who says that the ability to obtain a driver’s license will be an incredible relief, as she no longer has to make the calculation, “is this trip worth the risk.”

DHS released enforcement statistics for FY2014, which include reports from ICE and CBP. In FY2014, ICE removed or returned 315,943 individuals, 213,719 of whom were apprehended while, or shortly after, attempting to illegally enter the U.S., and 102,224 of whom were apprehended in the interior of the U.S. CBP made 486,651 apprehensions in FY2014, compared to 420,789 in FY2013. Both apprehension and removal numbers were influenced by the 68% increase in individuals migrating from countries other than Mexico, predominately from Central America.
