\n

Stephen Yale-Loehr \u201977, JD \u201981, has been practicing and teaching immigration law for more than three decades. A longtime faculty member at the Law School, he also represents clients from around the world through the immigration practice he founded at the Ithaca law firm Miller Mayer. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yale-Loehr<\/em><\/a> is a native Ithacan and a member of a large Cornellian family: many of his siblings are alums and their father, Raymond Loehr, taught engineering on the Hill. Frequently quoted as an expert on immigration issues in the national media, he is also one of the leaders of <\/em>Cornell\u2019s ambitious, multi-year effort to study global migration<\/em><\/a>\u2014not only by humans but by animals, insects, plant life, and even microorganisms.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the current state of the U.S. immigration system?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s broken. We haven\u2019t revised our legal immigration categories since 1990, and the world has changed significantly since then. So it\u2019s outmoded, and it\u2019s very backlogged. For example, if someone wanted to bring in their brother or sister from the Philippines, they would have to wait almost 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is now the toughest time in American history to immigrate legally?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. In my 30-plus years of practicing immigration law, I\u2019ve found it the most challenging in terms of the background checks that are required and the slowness of the process. Then you have the pandemic on top of everything else: it\u2019s hard to get a visa interview in an embassy. I feel sorry for people who are trying to immigrate to the U.S. now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about refugees? How does the number being admitted this fiscal year\u2014125,000\u2014compare historically?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve waxed and waned in terms of how many refugees we take. In 2020, under the prior administration, only 15,000 were authorized, and even fewer actually made it here. By contrast, right after the Vietnam War, we felt a moral responsibility to take large numbers of refugees from Southeast Asia; we admitted over 150,000 in one year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same issues are playing out now with Afghanistan: most Americans are sympathetic toward Afghanis because we feel like we created the problem there. By contrast, many Americans don\u2019t feel sympathetic toward people from Mexico, Central America, or Haiti who are fleeing persecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you think the average American understands how the immigration system works?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many misconceptions. People think it\u2019s easy to immigrate legally, and it\u2019s not. I had a client from India who just got his naturalization; it took him over 20 years from the time he came to the U.S. on a student visa, worked on a temporary visa after he graduated, went through the long green card process, and waited to become a citizen. Even if you\u2019re trying to do things correctly, it\u2019s a long, complex process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So a lot of people enter illegally, or they enter legally but then overstay their visas. People say \u2018Just get in line\u2019\u2014but the line is so long that for a lot of people, it really doesn\u2019t exist. And if they\u2019re fleeing persecution, they can\u2019t wait. We have an obligation under the U.N. Refugee Convention to allow people to apply for asylum\u2014so whether we want to or not, we have to adjudicate their claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People think it\u2019s easy to immigrate legally, and it\u2019s not. I had a client from India who just got his naturalization; it took him over 20 years.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Something you often hear is, \u2018My great-grandparents came in the right<\/em> way, not like people who are coming in illegally now.\u2019 What\u2019s your take on that comparison?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before the 1880s, when we passed laws banning Chinese immigrants, we didn\u2019t have any laws that excluded people. In the 1920s, we limited the number who could come in, so it became harder\u2014but even then, it was fairly easy. In 1952, Congress passed an overhaul to the immigration laws that codified some of the previous restrictions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, in 1965, during the civil rights movement, Congress expanded immigration. We started to see immigrants not just from European countries but also from Latin America and Asia, in larger numbers than ever. After 9\/11, while we didn’t formally change our laws, we made it more difficult for people from certain countries\u2014particularly Muslim-majority countries\u2014to come to the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about the argument that immigrants take jobs from U.S. citizens?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can always point to anecdotes where one U.S. worker was laid off and replaced by a foreign one. But there are many jobs\u2014like getting up at 4 a.m. to milk cows\u2014where employers can\u2019t find U.S. workers, no matter the wage. Unfortunately, we seem to be closing the doors to immigration at the time when we need more immigrants, because of our labor shortages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the system is broken, how would you fix it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need three things for comprehensive immigration reform. One is to control our borders. The second is to have the right kinds of work visas, so people who want to work here temporarily can do so, and employers who need foreign workers can get them. The third is to take care of the 10 million people who are here without status. If we can bring them out of the shadows\u2014but make them pay a financial penalty for having been here illegally\u2014that will mean they\u2019re competing fairly with U.S. workers, and it will protect them from being exploited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How would you answer the objection that legalization rewards lawbreakers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have to do something, and legalization is the better alternative. We don\u2019t have the money or the manpower to deport 10 million people\u2014and losing all those workers would wreck our economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does the U.S. need more immigration lawyers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Absolutely. I think every immigration lawyer in the country is swamped right now. Immigration law has been called the second most complex area\u2014second only to tax law\u2014and there are often life-or-death consequences if somebody is fleeing persecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you find gratifying about this work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping individuals get through this gauntlet so they can get to the U.S., either on a temporary visa or a green card. I co-wrote a book a couple of years ago called Green Card Stories<\/a>,<\/em> where we profiled 50 average immigrants. We didn\u2019t go into it with any particular preconceptions, but one thing I found is that a lot of immigrants really do have an entrepreneurial drive. Immigrants bring a spirit and a vitality to the United States that we need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
