Lax immigration policies a disservice to America's STEM professionals

Dale L. Wilcox

Even the most casual followers of U.S. politics know well the insidious practice of congressional lobbying: the finely-honed art of outside interests to press their agenda on Congress through financial contributions, solicitation-campaigns, and even soft promises of future jobs.

Far fewer, however, know the practice of agency lobbying wherein corporate “government relations” execs and top government bureaucrats engage over “stakeholder meetings,” “listening sessions,” and even off-hours social functions, all for the same private ends. On Feb. 20, my public interest law firm will be in D.C. federal court fighting what is perhaps the text book case of what the latter looks like.
