A new interim final rule changes DOJ regulations to streamline how the Board of Immigration Appeals reviews immigration judge decisions. The rule aims to reduce delays and backlog by adjusting how “merits” review works and setting briefing timelines.
The Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC) says Congress should not fund DHS/ICE as currently structured and instead redirect money toward legal services and community support. The group argues that enforcement practices violate constitutional rights and harm immigrant communities.
A newly reported ICE internal memo claims agents can enter private homes using an “administrative warrant” rather than a judicial warrant. The Immigrant Legal Resource Center says the memo conflicts with Fourth Amendment protections and does not change people’s constitutional rights.
The Department of Justice announced updated inflation-adjusted fees for filings handled by EOIR for the rest of FY 2026. The changes apply to EOIR-collected “OBBBA” fees and take effect on the dates listed in the Federal Register notice.
The Immigrant Legal Resource Center says it will continue education, court monitoring, and advocacy against immigration enforcement and efforts it says would restrict benefits and naturalization. The group also calls for ending ICE funding and redirecting money toward housing, healthcare, and legal services.
