What's Happening at the Center
In his latest commentary ([link removed]) , Mark Krikorian explains that President Biden's radical immigration proposal rejects both enforcement first and enforcement second in favor of enforcement never. The passage of the administration's immigration bill — even in a slimmed-down form — would merely guarantee continued illegal immigration in the future. The only way giving amnesty to long-established illegal aliens will work as policy is if it addresses the reasons that such a large illegal population developed in the first place. This requires mandatory use of E-Verify; a functioning entry-exit tracking system for foreign visitors; and full cooperation between federal immigration authorities and local law enforcement.

With that in mind, this is the first of several occasional posts on the administration's opportunities to reform the immigration system, or at least parts of it.
Biden Freezes ICE; Suspends 85% of Criminal Alien Deportations ([link removed])
By Jessica M. Vaughan
One of President Biden's first acts on immigration is to suspend investigations, arrests, and deportations of most criminal aliens for the next 100 days. In a memo titled "Review of and Interim Revision to Civil Immigration Enforcement and Removal Policies and Procedures", sent on Wednesday to all immigration agency heads, Acting DHS Secretary David Pekoske announced the deportation freeze and new enforcement priorities that go into effect now.

New Numbers Show Effectiveness of Cancelled 287(g) Program in Two Georgia Counties ([link removed])
By Marguerite Telford
Elections have consequences and, in the State of Georgia, a consequence of two local sheriff races could be a reduction in public safety. The only question is: How badly will the new sheriffs' policy changes affect community safety?
