On May 4, 2021, West Virginia University College of Law Professor Alison Peck published blog post at the American Constitution Society Expert Forum: "Free the Immigration Courts from DOJ to Take Politics Out of Immigration Cases." In this piece Professor Peck discusses the existing structure of immigration courts within the Department of Justice and, ultimately, the need for change to independent Article I immigration courts.
Professor Peck's forthcoming book on this topic will be released on May 28, 2021: “The Accidental History of the U.S. Immigration Courts: War, Fear, and the Roots of Dysfunction.”
