Nigerian Lawyers Association Presents "Comprehensive Immigration Reform: How it Affects the African Community"
The Nigerian Lawyers Association, together with the African Cultural
Alliance of North America Inc., invites the public to a roundtable
discussion entitled "Comprehensive Immigration Reform: How it Affects
the African Community".
The proposed bill passed by the U.S. Senate addresses undocumented
immigrants and a path to citizenship, legal immigration, border
security, and employer hiring. Now that the debate over immigration
reform has moved from the Senate to the House, it is time to bring the
debate to our community and discuss how the current system is or is not
working for us, and what implications the proposed reform will have for
our families and businesses.
Agenda topics include an overview of the current immigration system; a
summary of the proposed federal comprehensive immigration reform
legislation; the current status of the proposed reform legislation; and
how immigration reform will affect the African community. Speakers will
include not only immigration attorneys, but also community activists
proficient in immigration policy.
