My piece on the risk of statelessness from the birthright citizenship executive order that is ever more present following the Supreme Court's Decision in Trump v. CASA. I also explain how in light of DHS v. DVD, stateless persons are at increased risk of removal to third countries.

Wonderful evening at Kaimana Beach to kick off the CAPALF-WLTC conference, Transformative Justice in a World on Fire, hosted @uhawaiilaw.bsky.social. Reconnecting with friends and meeting new colleagues! Mahalo to the planning committee co-chairs, @skserrano.bsky.social & @rcchen.bsky.social! 👏🏽🌅

Please read this moving and beautifully written story by NPR's Juliana Kim about our client, a deported Purple Heart veteran.

So proud of my brilliant and hardworking staff attorneys, both badass Lawtinas, who won asylum for our client in Imm Ct today! Case involved gender based violence. Our client is now free to marry the person she loves and exercise control over her body. Classic & hopefully enduring American story.

Here's the call for presentations and papers for our conference this June in Honolulu!
