    • CLINIC Submits Comments on Proposed Rule That Would Deny Asylum Seekers a Day in Court

      Posted on November 1, 2021

      On Oct. 18, 2021, CLINIC submitted comments largely opposing a proposed rule that would authorize asylum officers to hear cases of asylum seekers who pass credible fear interviews, rather than having their cases referred directly to an immigration judge. While CLINIC does not object to asylum officers hearing these cases, under the proposed rule, immigration judges would merely review a transcript of that interview in most cases where the asylum officer does not grant asylum, rather than conducting a full hearing. CLINIC strongly objects to any changes in asylum procedures that would allow asylum seekers to be removed without having the due process protections of a full immigration court hearing first.

    Promoting the Dignity of Immigrants with Affordable Legal Expertise

    As it has for more than 30 years, CLINIC will fight for the rights of immigrants. CLINIC trains legal representatives who provide high-quality and affordable immigration legal services. We develop and sustain a network of nonprofit programs that serve close to 500,000 immigrants every year. We cultivate projects that support and defend vulnerable immigrant populations by:

    • providing direct representation for asylum seekers at the U.S.-Mexico border and educating them about their rights; 
    • reuniting formerly separated families;
    • increasing legal representation for those in removal proceedings and in detention;
    • providing public education on immigration law and policies; and
    • advocating for fair and just immigration policies that acknowledge the inherent dignity and value of all people.  

    History has taught us that people who step up can make a difference. We hope you will join us.
