Playing Rubix Cube with Immigration Laws

This week Stephanie Rodin chats with her guest, Eric Lorenzo. The two chat about shifts in new interpretations of the rules in immigration over the last 16 years, how greatly who is in office affects those changes, and what he would change about the immigration process.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How he acquired an interest in immigration, and the deep roots where that began

• What shifts he has seen in new interpretations of the rules in immigration over the last 16 years

• What changed about the immigration process during Trump’s presidency

• Why he was recruited to deal with the migrant crisis while Trump was in office

• How The Family Unity Executive Order passed by Biden impacted Lorenzo’s practice and the lives of many of his clients

• How long the process of gaining citizenship may take, based on what type of green card is being applied for and which branch of the government is being gone through

• What Eric would change about the immigration process
