The Politics of Division

The Challenges of Business and Family Immigration in an Era of Divisive Politics

As an immigration attorney, I have seen firsthand the challenges that businesses and families face in navigating the complex and ever-changing immigration system in the United States. These challenges are often compounded by the divisive political climate, which can make it difficult to find common ground on even the most basic immigration issues.

One of the biggest challenges for businesses is finding and retaining qualified foreign workers. The United States has a long history of welcoming immigrants from all over the world to fill jobs that Americans are not willing or able to do. However, the current immigration system makes it difficult and time-consuming for businesses to obtain visas for foreign workers. This can be a major disadvantage for US businesses competing in a global economy.

For families, the challenges of immigration can be even more personal. Many families are separated because one or more members are not US citizens or permanent residents. This can cause significant emotional and financial hardship. In addition, families may face challenges in obtaining visas for relatives to visit or immigrate to the United States.

The divisive political climate makes it even more difficult to address the challenges of business and family immigration. Politicians on both sides of the aisle often use immigration as a wedge issue to divide voters. This makes it difficult to build consensus on any meaningful reforms to the immigration system.

As an immigration attorney, I am committed to helping my clients navigate the complex immigration system and overcome the challenges they face.

Despite these challenges, I continue to work with my clients to help them achieve their immigration goals. I believe that the United States is a stronger country because of its diversity and its history of welcoming immigrants from all over the world. I am committed to fighting for the rights of my clients and advocating for a more just and humane immigration system.
