The UNLV Immigration Clinic received a state appropriation that will allow it to expand services for members of Nevada’s undocumented community facing deportation.

A federal judge in Texas on Friday ruled unlawful the program that has shielded from deportation hundreds of thousands of young adults living in the U.S. illegally. The ruling throws into question yet again the fate of migrants known as Dreamers.

The judge said President Barack Obama exceeded his authority when he created the program, but for now people protected under it will retain the ability to stay and work in the United States.

A federal judge in Texas rules that the Dreamers program, protecting about 650,000 young people from deportation, is unlawful.

Immigration advocates, families and supporters gathered Thursday evening outside the federal courthouse in downtown Las Vegas, waving American flags and toting signs demanding legal residency for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders.

Progressives are livid at Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.V. — once again.

The Supreme Court was unanimous in its refusal to let immigrants who have been allowed to stay in the United States on humanitarian grounds apply to become permanent residents if they entered the country illegally.

In an attempt to bridge the gap, Nevada Assembly lawmakers on Wednesday approved AB376, which allocates $500,000 in state funds for the UNLV Immigration Clinic to expand its no-cost legal services for immigrants.
