Misuse of Barbara Jordan's Legacy on Immigration Is Wrong, No Matter Who Does It

 
Wed, Feb 14th 2018 @ 9:40 pm EST  by  Eric Ruark

Susan Martin, Professor Emerita of International Migration at Georgetown University, last week wrote a scathing attack on President Trump's immigration framework. Martin served as the executive director of staff for the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform, most often referred to as the Jordan Commission in honor of its chair, Barbara Jordan, who passed away shortly before the commission's recommendations were officially submitted to Congress.

The work of Jordan and the Commission should be read by anybody interested in immigration policy.  They strongly advocated for mandatory universal E-Verify, which would uncover VISA overstays as well as people smuggled across the borders.
