The Executive Office of Immigration Review, EOIR is seeking comments on the interim rule released on Aug. 26 that moves the Office of Legal Access Program, or OLAP, into the Office of Policy, which was created in 2017 by the Trump administration. CLINIC is preparing its own organizational comments and is providing a template for affiliates to modify and submit to EOIR. The webinar on Oct. 3 is an opportunity for affiliate staff to hear how they can advocate on these important issues. CLINIC opposes the changes stemming from the interim rule. CLINIC believes they will have a negative effect on nonprofits seeking and maintaining recognition and accreditation and representing immigrants in removal proceedings who may have their cases singularly and arbitrarily adjudicated by the director of EOIR. Please join us on the webinar and prepare your leaders for advocacy efforts.
A recorded version of this webinar will be posted.
Topics:
- The new guidelines for recognition and accreditation under the interim rule
