Panel
Fighting Biden in Court: A look at immigration cases against the administration
Summary: The U.S. Supreme Court’s 2021-2022 term is over, and its final ruling was on the "Remain in Mexico" case brought against the administration by the states of Texas and Missouri. But that is only one of a large number of immigration cases filed over the past year and a half since President Biden's inauguration. The Center for Immigration Studies hosted a conversation on immigration-related lawsuits brought against the Biden administration. The discussion focused on specific cases being litigated as well as on how litigation has affected decision-making in the executive and how it might influence Congress's framing of legislation.

By Mark Krikorian
UnHerd, July 5, 2022
Excerpt: Even President Biden no longer claims that the border surge is just a seasonal phenomenon that “happens every single solitary year“. May broke the monthly record for the largest number of illegal-alien “encounters” on the southern border, at nearly a quarter-million. While there will certainly be fluctuations, there’s no reason to think the mass violation of America’s border will end so long as the Biden/Harris administration is in power.

States Are Utterly Dependent on the Feds to Secure the Border, Enforce Immigration Laws
By Andrew R. Arthur
Gov. Abbott’s order allowing his officers to drop illegal migrants off at the U.S. side of the border reflects the constitutional limits on the state’s power to protect itself from the adverse impacts of immigration. The Fifth Circuit’s order in the Texas v. U.S. case, on the other hand, is grounded in the laws forcing the U.S. government to live up to its end of the federal immigration bargain.
A Roundup of State-Level Actions Regarding Illegal Aliens
By David North
Three states have (or are) taking actions that will impact their illegal alien populations: California will give them lots of money, New York is distributing a smaller amount, and there is a jump ball or two in Massachusetts over driver’s licenses.

Labor Force Participation Remains Low in All States
By Steven A. Camarota and Karen Zeigler
The current low unemployment rate, which only includes people who have looked for a job in the prior four weeks, masks the long-term decline in labor force participation, which measures the share of working-age people holding a job or looking for one. The large number of U.S.-born people on the sidelines of the labor market contributes to a host of social problems.
Possible U.S. Immigration Fallout of Boris Johnson’s Resignation
By David North
No one has noticed, but there is a huge piece of green card holder-taxpayer news out there, and it all came to light as a very indirect consequence of Boris Johnson’s resignation as leader of the UK’s Conservative Party.
