Is America Fulfilling Its Promise? Safeguarding Legal Protections for Immigrants

Abstract

This book shows how a nation built by immigrants can and should treat those who come to our shores in search of better lives. It draws on the combined efforts of dedicated jurists, law professors, legal service organizations, lawyers and local law enforcement to address today’s immigration challenges in a constructive, humane way. Though created and written primarily by lawyers, the book is not just for the legal community. Public officials will find insightful information here as will anyone, lawyer or not, committed to the rule of law.
