SUMMARY:Immigration Law Section: Introduction to Labor Based Deferred Action
DESCRIPTION:Noncitizens in the United States disproportionately suffer labor-based abuses at their employers. Thankfully\, in a fairly newly announced joint program between the Department of Labor and Department of Homeland Security\, individuals who have been victims of labor-based abuses\, even if they are entirely undocumented\, have a pathway to deferred action and lawful work authorization as they come forward and report these abuses. Please join the Immigration Law Section’s Newer Lawyers Division in a discussion on what this program is\, how your clients can take advantage of it\, and tips on filing these life-changing applications.\nPresented by the Immigration Law Section \n\n\nPresenters\nAnn Garcia\, Staff Attorney\, National Immigration Project\n \nAnn Garcia is a Staff Attorney at the National Immigration Project (NIPNLG). Her work at NIPNLG is focused on holding DHS accountable through advocacy\, litigation\, and training. Before joining NIPNLG\, she ran projects at the Catholic Legal Immigration Network (CLINIC) to assist separated families and free immigrants from detention. Ann’s work appears regularly in national media. She previously started a detained removal defense program at the RAICES office in Fort Worth\, Texas as an Equal Justice Works Fellow. Ann is a graduate of the American University Washington College of Law\, where she was on the editorial board of the ABA’s Administrative Law Review. She has a bachelor’s degree from Middlebury College. Prior to law school\, Ann worked on immigration policy at the Center for American Progress. \n\n\n \n\n\nMary Yanik\, Clinical Associate Professor of Law and Director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic\, Tulane University \nMary Yanik directs the Immigrant Rights Clinic\, supervising students in representing immigrants in deportation defense\, affirmative applications for lawful status\, constitutional litigation\, and strategic advocacy. She specializes in assisting immigrant workers\, including victims of labor trafficking\, and in defending constitutional rights of immigrants. \nYanik previously worked at the New Orleans Workers’ Center for Racial Justice\, leading a law & organizing practice in support of community-directed campaigns for labor\, migrant\, and racial justice. She served as local and trial counsel in federal litigation challenging the constitutionality of Louisiana’s marriage license law and\, separately\, prolonged immigration detention in Louisiana. She represented dozens of immigrant workers in reporting labor abuse to the Department of Labor\, Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, and National Labor Relations Board\, including the immigrant whistleblower who complained of unsafe conditions at the now-collapsed Hard Rock Hotel site in New Orleans. She further represented immigrant workers and immigrant victims of crime in U and T visa applications based on their assistance to government officials\, in part through supervising law students in the Tulane Immigrant Rights’ Practicum. After law school\, she clerked for Judge David F. Hamilton of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. \nIn the Clinic\, Professor Yanik teaches core lawyering skills alongside reflection on the role of lawyers\, clients\, and communities in addressing social injustice and power dynamics in legal relationships and legal systems. The Clinic represents individual detained immigrants in seeking release and relief from deportation and also engages in strategic advocacy in defense of migrant rights. Professor Yanik continues to monitor and enforce the federal consent judgment in Cacho v. Gusman\, the landmark case that prohibits the Orleans Parish Prison from transferring most immigrants to federal immigration authorities. \nYanik received her J.D. from Yale Law School in 2014 and a bachelor of science and bachelor of arts\, magna cum laude\, from University of Maryland in 2011. \n\nRegistration\nRegistration has closed. \nRegistration Fees \n\nComplimentary for FBA Members & Non-Members\n\nLive Captioning: Closed captioning is available for all virtual webcasts. \nInternet Requirements: Virtual programs require suitable internet strength to stream online panels.

As we transition to Oklahoma’s statehood\, our focus will center on the legal complexities arising from the discovery of oil and gas resources within the Osage Nation\, including the intricate regulatory landscape governing allotment and reserved oil and gas headrights. \nPrepare to delve into the nuanced jurisdictional challenges that have emerged between state and federal authorities.

Hale and John Ramsey within the Western District of Oklahoma federal court. \nFurthermore\, we will address pressing legal considerations regarding the re-establishment of the Osage tribal government\, the intricacies of Osage headrights ownership\, and ongoing jurisdictional disputes involving state\, federal\, and tribal entities within the historic Osage Reservation. Gain invaluable legal insights into the complexities surrounding litigation pertaining to the boundaries of the Osage Reservation post-McGirt.
