Immigration Court Leadership Changes Noted by Judges' Association

WASHINGTON – The Trump administration has dismissed additional immigration judges. These actions are part of ongoing efforts to reorganize the court system responsible for deportation proceedings. The Department of Justice oversees immigration courts, meaning judges operate within the executive branch that also sets the policies they adjudicate.

Holly D'Andrea, president of the National Association of Immigration Judges, discussed these personnel changes. She spoke with Ali Rogin, providing insights into the perspective of the judges' association regarding the administration's actions within the court system.
