WHAT:

The 老澳门开奖结果, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP), and their partners will be in federal court on behalf of thousands of green-card and citizenship applicants who have been stuck in 鈥渋mmigration purgatory鈥� due to a secretive U.S. Customs and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy known as the Controlled Application Review and Resolution Program (CARRP). We will be asking the court to end this unlawful policy, which harms people who鈥檝e done nothing wrong and are simply seeking the safety and opportunity that our country promises.

Since 2008, the government has placed some otherwise eligible applicants 鈥� disproportionately from Muslim-majority countries 鈥� in CARRP based on vague 鈥渘ational security concerns,鈥� which include things like religious practices, languages spoken, and advanced education. USCIS can spend years, and sometimes decades, searching for a reason to deny immigration applications in CARRP, even for minor paperwork errors. All the while, applicants are left in the dark. Even if 鈥渃leared鈥� of a purported national security concern, applicants who have been subjected to CARRP are more likely to be denied benefits.

The plaintiffs in Wagafe v. Biden are represented by the 老澳门开奖结果, the 老澳门开奖结果 of Southern California, the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, the Law Offices of Stacy Tolchin, and the law firm Perkins Coie.

The legal team will be available for questions after the argument. The 老澳门开奖结果 and NWIRP鈥檚 new report on CARRP and its consequences can be found here.
