The latest federal court ruling dealt another blow to #DACA. But with litigation likely to continue for years, it's attrition that is actively reducing its reach per prior orders blocking new entrants. 🧐Read my @MigrationPolicy commentary w/ @J_Gelatt ⬇️ migrationpolicy.org/news/shrinking…
This is the most interesting component of @J_Gelatt @ruizags and @VanHookJenny timely report. Why? It shows legal pathways for addressing irregular immigration need to have a circular component or a pathway that allows for individuals to adjust from temporary to permanent status
Smart colleagues @VanHookJenny @J_Gelatt @ruizags have been working for months to finalize these estimates - which offer the most recent snapshot of the size and origins of the US unauthorized immigrant population

Very excited to see my exceptional postdoc, @MaraSheftel, has a new article leveraging an innovative binational study design to answer some core unanswered questions in the migration literature about return migration, income, migrant decision-making, & wealth stratification.
In “Immigrant Wealth Stratification & Return Migration,” @MaraSheftel shows that “return migration is associated with a more diverse asset portfolio…& higher total net wealth” & so can represent “a story of success.” @GC_CUNY @CIDR_NYC @psupopresearch ow.ly/iv6P50NOVaa
