years.

Are Young Immigrants
Losing Their Protection
Against Deportation?
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Critics assert many
DACA recipients,
who now have
social security cards
and driver licenses,
are thumbing their
noses at Uncle Sam.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
There are several
reasons for the
low renewal rate.
Supporters assert
government delays
are the primary
reason and have
caused over
11,000 work
permits to expire.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
When their DACA
status expires, young
immigrants lose
more than their
ability to work
legally.
They are again
subject to
deportation.

Here Is The News
Private prison
corporations operate
nine of the ten
largest immigrant
detention facilities.
The two largest are
CCA and GEO.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Congress has set an
“immigrant bed quota”
of 34,000 detainees per
day. Most are not
violent criminal
offenders.
It costs about $159.00
per day to house one
detainee. The average
detention time is 31
days.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
CCA made over
195,000,000 and
GEO made over
$143,000 in
profits last year

Here Is The News
In California,
individuals charged
with minor drug
crimes are allowed
to plead guilty and
undergo drug
counseling.
This allows them a
chance to turn their
lives around. http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
When a defendant
finishes treatment,
minor drug charges
are wiped away.
Under immigration
law, the convictions
still stand and often
lead to deportation
and broken
families.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Under the proposed
change, defendants
could opt for treatment
before pleading guilty.
If they are successful,
their cases would be
dismissed, protecting
them from deportation.

Here Is The News
Army officials have
increased the number
of recruits with valid
immigration status
from 1,500 to 3,000 for
the 2015 fiscal year.
An expansion up to
5,000 is planned for the
following year.

Under the Military
Accessions Vital to the
National Interest
(MAVNI) program,
immigrants with
special medical and
language skills are
eligible to become
naturalized citizens
immediately after they
complete basic
training.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
On another front,
Rep. Jeff Denham
(R-Calif.) has
introduced the
ENLIST Act which
would make
undocumented
immigrants eligible
for citizenship upon
completing military
service.

Will a changing world
religion profile affect
international issues?
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
The Pew Research Center
forecast is based on various
factors:
• Projected change in global
population
• Current size and location of
world religions
• Age differences of religious
adherents
• Estimated religious
switching
• Impact of migration patterns
• Fertility and mortality rates
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
By 2050 there
will be near
parity between
Muslims (2.8
billion) and
Christians (2.9
billion), possibly
for the first time
in history.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
It is quite likely the
growth and decline
of different
religions will
impact global
economic and
social matters.

How Many Migrant
Children Will Arrive At
U.S. Borders This Summer?
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Here Is The News
Immigration
opponents claim that
the number of
children trying to
enter the U.S. this
summer will exceed
the surge of 2014.
They assert it’s a
guessing game until
June and July have
passed.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
.
According to
Michael Fisher,
chief of the U.S.
Border Patrol,
“based on where we
are halfway through
this year, we will
not see the level of
unaccompanied
children that we
saw last year.”.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
At present,
unaccompanied children
caught on the U.S
borders are down 45%.
Immigrant children from
27 different countries
have been taken into
custody. 90% are from
just four countries –
Guatemala, El Salvador,
Honduras, and
Nicaragua.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
In New York a
woman was
taken into
custody for
marrying ten
different persons
whom she then
sponsored for
immigration
benefits.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Nine of her
marriages took
place between
1999 and 2002.
Prosecutors say
she was married
to eight men at
once.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Seven of the
men are
immigrants
from the DHS
list of “red-
flagged”
countries.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Here Is The News
Since 9/11 the number
of CBP officers more
than doubled.
“When we lowered our
standards of hiring and
did not properly vet
people, we made
mistakes in who got
hired. We paid a price
for that and are
continuing to pay a
price.“
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Some immigration
observers describe the
CBP as “America’s most
out of-control law
enforcement agency.
Violence and corruption
rose in CBP’s ranks, with
nearly one CBP officer
arrested for misconduct
every single day between
2005 and 2012.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
The newly arrived
Central American
children are not a
border security
issue.
They are a border
management
problem.

Here Is The News
After wars end,
participants often
seek refuge in far-
away lands.
Like General Vides,
they often hide their
roles in carrying out
war crimes.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
Some experts said
the deportation of
Vides was a message
to the world that
America would not
harbor persons who
had committed
human rights
violations and war
crimes.
http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com
A week later, the
U.S. was publicly
criticized for failing
to pursue similar
actions against an
acknowledged Nazi
war criminal,
Michael Karkoc,
living in
Minnesota.
