• The Consequences of Losing a Lawful Immigrant Parent to Deportation
  In the Child's Best Interest? The Consequences of Losing a Lawful Immigrant Parent to Deportation The authors of this new report (March 2010) from the University of California's Berkeley and Davis Schools of Law estimate that 100,000 children (88,000 of which were U.S. citizens) were affected by the deportation of a parent who was a U.S. legal permanent resident during 1997-2007. The authors examine the economic, legal, and social/emotional impact of these deportations, and recommend a number of guidelines to amend current policy that will "bring current immigration laws in line with the basic American values of public safety and family unity, as well as with international human rights standards."
