There is wide consensus that the immigration administrative adjudication
system is facing serious challenges. There is less unity, however, in deciding
how to address those challenges. One possible fix is the creation of an Article
I Immigration Court. This panel will address this possibility from both legal and
policy perspectives.

Mary Giovagnoli, Director, Immigration Policy Center, American Immigration Law
Foundation

Stephen H. Legomsky, John S. Lehmann University Professor, Washington
