Your browser does not support javascript Making Our Immigration System More Secure December, 2001 The terrorist attacks of September 11 have presented America with a challenge. Our government must do a better job of screening people who want to come to the U.S. to do us harm. At the same time, we must preserve our tradition as an open society and a nation of immigrants. Some in Congress would have us turn our backs on our traditions. They have proposed legislation that would isolate America, but would do little to isolate the terrorists who threaten us. As the details of the terrorist plot have emerged, what has become clear is that any change in the way we manage our immigration system will have only a limited impact on our national security . Far more important is our capacity to collect and analyze intelligence. Unless we know who it is that seeks to do us harm and make sure that information is in the hands of the proper authorities, the immigration system will be unable to catch these individuals. Changes to the immigration system that will make us more secure involve, primarily, better access to and timely use of information collected by our intelligence agencies. To a lesser extent, systems that help authorities determine whether a person who came to the U.S. is complying with the terms of his or her visa might be useful should authorities become interested in a person

WHO WE ARE Services Board of Directors History 120 HIAS Stories ... Hall of Fame For more than a century, HIAS, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, has had an extraordinary impact on millions of Jews. For generation after generation, HIAS has provided essential lifesaving services to world Jewry, through its mission of rescue, reunion and resettlement. As an expression of Jewish tradition and values, HIAS also responds to the migration needs of other people who are threatened and oppressed. Started in New York City by a group of Jewish immigrants who found sanctuary in the United States after fleeing persecution in Europe, HIAS offered food, shelter and other aid to countless new arrivals. Since its founding in 1881, HIAS has assisted more than four and a half million people in their quest for freedom. This includes the million Jewish refugees it helped to migrate to Israel (in cooperation with the Jewish Agency for Israel), and the thousands it helped resettle in Canada, Latin America, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere. As the oldest international migration and refugee resettlement agency in the U.S., HIAS also played a major role in the rescue and relocation of Jewish survivors of the Holocaust and of Jews from Morocco, Ethiopia, Egypt and the communist countries of Eastern Europe. More recently, since the mid-70s, HIAS has helped

[Home] About us Travel Housing ... Adminstrator's Resources Travel Advisory Under the current political and immigration climate, we recommend that you do not make international travel plans without checking with the Harvard International Office. It is recommended that you only travel outside the United States if you have all documents related to your U.S. immigration status in order. A critical document is the U.S. visa stamp in your passport. It is important to remember that obtaining a new visa stamp is never guaranteed. Now, more than ever, it is possible that you may experience delays at a U.S. embassy or consulate, regardless of your country of citizenship. Recently several US embassies overseas have changed their hours of operation and application procedures. Each US embassy can set its own particular application process. Please contact the U.S. embassy or consulate at which you plan to obtain the visa stamp prior to making your travel plans. Go here for a list of U.S. consulates abroad. New Travel Procedures as of January 30, 2003: A federally mandated tracking system has been implemented by the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (formerly the Immigration and Naturalization Service) which will require the Harvard International Office (HIO) to submit information electronically about all F-1 and J-1 students and scholars to the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS). The new system, known as the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), will affect all international students, scholars, and accompanying dependents applying for new visa stamps at U.S. consulates.

Attracted by reports of great economic opportunities and religious and political freedom, immigrants from many other countries flocked to the United States in increasing numbers, the flow reaching a peak in the years 1892-1924. During the late 19th century, the government operated a special port of entry on Ellis Island; it was in operation from 1892 until 1954 and is now preserved as part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument. The Statue of Liberty, which was a gift from the people of France to the people of America in 1886, stands on an island in New York Harbor, near Ellis Island. Between 1820 and 1979, the United States admitted more than 49 million immigrants. Limits on Newcomers Illegal Immigrants

I would like to find out when she will have to come in for the interview. I was not clear on when this would be. I understand that one week prior to that she needs to travel to Jakarta and take a physical exam again. Is there any way she can take the exam in Bandung since it is nearly 4 hours into Jakarta? I cannot afford to pay any more money to the Indonesian government for my infant daughter and I am afraid they will take her away from us. I saw in the news that they were putting illegal aliens in jail there. I have almost exhausted all reserves of money to pay expenses incurred already and I am worried. If they decide to take our daughter away there is nothing I can do. Sincerely Glenn K Madden

Hands that Shape the World: Report on the Conditions of Immigrant Women Five Years After the Beijing Conference Executive Summary Hands that Shape the World finds that immigrant women are among the most vulnerable to exploitation, abuse, and human rights violations in the U.S. Assessing the state of immigrant women in the five years since the 1995 Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, China, this unprecedented review of conditions for immigrant women finds that the U.S. government has not only failed to protect the rights of immigrant women, but has implemented new legislation negatively impacting the well-being, health, employment, and family life of immigrant women. Hands that Shape the World, first released as part of a U.S. immigrant women's delegation to the "Beijing + 5" activities in New York City in June 2000, is an important contribution to the process of assessing progress on the Platform for Action set at the 1995 conference. Although the Beijing Conference made important strides in promoting international standards for women's rights, the particular challenges facing migrant women continue to be ignored, both at the United Nations level and by the U.S. government. The report urges the U.S. government to include immigrant women, including the undocumented, within its commitment to expand the rights and opportunities for all women in the U.S.

Kirpan Law Immigration Law and Abused Immigrants "Of particular importance to women is the impact of federal regulations that benefit those immigrant spouses who are victims of domestic violence or abuse, which often takes the form of battery or extreme mental cruelty, and are afraid to speak out about it because they fear that they will be sent back to their home country in shame by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. Even though the Sikh faith does not condone or even allow this behavior, our conservative culture can often force these victims to think twice about acting on such abuse when it does occur. Therefore it is important to get the word out to those who are experiencing this type of situation, that they do have rights under U.S. law." Raj S. Singh Law Offices of Raj S. Singh CPA, Esq. P.C.

Mission National Executive Committee Contact Us Founded in 1937 the National Lawyers Guild was the nation’s first racially integrated bar association. The first Guild lawyers supported President Roosevelt’s New Deal, assisted the emerging industrial labor movement, and opposed the racial segregation policies of the American Bar Association and the larger society. During its 65 year history, the NLG has been an important part of the American people’s struggle for real democracy, for economic and social justice, and against oppression and discrimination based on race, ethnicity, immigration status, class, gender or sexual orientation. Consistent with its commitment to ensuring fairness and equality for all people, law students, non-lawyer legal workers and inmate legal experts are full members. The Guild elected its first African-American president in the early 1950s and its first female president in the 1960s. The first legal worker president was elected in 1996. In the 1930s, NLG lawyers helped organize the United Auto Workers (UAW), the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) and supported the New Deal in the face of determined ABA opposition. In the 1940s, Guild lawyers fought against fascists in the Spanish Civil War and WW II, and helped prosecute Nazis at Nuremburg. Guild lawyers fought racial discrimination in cases such as
