USCIS Needs Direct Access to Law Enforcement Power to Curb Rampant Immigration Fraud
By CIS on May 6, 2019
As told to the Center for Immigration Studies by an active-duty Department of Homeland Security officer who requested anonymity.
It now appears that L. Francis Cissna, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), dodged a bullet and remained in office following the recent purge of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) leadership.
According to many in USCIS, Cissna has been the best director in the agency's 16-year history. If some of President Trump's critics see him as not aggressively pursuing the president's immigration agenda, USCIS sees that as far from the truth. Cissna has made a true impact. That said, I believe it is time for Cissna to make a bold statement in this way: Force a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the investigative arm of DHS that will require prosecution of immigration fraud.
But why would USCIS need an MOU on a process that is already supposed to happen automatically?
