Removal Defense
Publication Date
On April 8, 2026, the ILRC submitted a comment in response to a proposed federal immigration rule that would sharply limit appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, arguing that it would weaken due process protections for people facing removal. The rule was issued improperly without the required public notice-and-comment process, would make meaningful appeals nearly impossible through shortened deadlines and automatic dismissals, and would shift burdens onto federal courts rather than improve efficiency.
