Board-certified immigration attorney Ruby Powers joins Scott Berry to unpack the real-world intersection of immigration and family law. From screening checklists and FOIA fundamentals to I-864 obligations after divorce, Ruby outlines the issues family lawyers must spot early to protect clients. You will hear practical guidance on SIJS orders and drafting pitfalls, when VAWA, U visas, or T visas apply, how TPS shifts can upend strategy, and why citizenship can be more complex than it looks. Ruby also flags current courtroom and detention trends, re-calendaring challenges, and steps families should take now to prepare for emergencies. If you serve mixed-status families or collaborate with immigration counsel, this conversation will help you deliver better outcomes and avoid costly missteps.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
