  A Good Day for Immigration Reform . . .

  Any temporary worker program that links lawful immigration status to employment with a particular employer represents little more than a return to the dreadful Bracero Program. Jennifer Gordon, a law professor at Fordham, has proposed the concept of "transnational labor citizenship," an attempt to protect workers' rights across national boundaries by "tie[ing] immigration status to membership in organizations of transnational workers rather than to a particular employer." This is an idea worth serious consideration.

  Deport First, Ask Questions Later

  Unfortunately, I can say from personal experience as an immigration attorney that it's not uncommon to find U.S. citizens in immigration prisons. Sometimes they now they're citizens, but often they don't. Citizenship laws aren't straightforward. They have changed many, many times over the last century and the law that applies is the law that existed at someone's birth. That means that determining whether a person is a citizen often requires looking at what the citizenship laws said 20, 30, 40, or more years ago.

  Private Prison as Stimulus

  As an immigration lawyer who has spent considerable time in several immigration detention centers, I fully agree with Matt. Those jails--call them whatever we want--are horribly managed, horrid places waiting for sheer catastrophe to erupt.
