ICE Targets Immigration Lawyers

Published 21 hours ago
Description

DHS’s top lawyer just dropped a memo cracking down on immigration attorneys helping clients file fake asylum claims — a move designed to accelerate deportations and crack down on what officials call rampant fraud. While no new penalties exist, ICE will now aggressively use existing laws to punish lawyers who knowingly assist in fraudulent applications, risking suspension, disbarment, or even criminal charges. Critics warn this is a dangerous escalation aimed at chilling legal representation and undermining asylum protections — echoing past administrations’ tactics against “frivolous” lawsuits.
