What is the constitutional and statutory scope of the Executive Branch’s power in the area of immigration? And how does the Executive’s enforcement, or lack of enforcement, of immigration law impact states and local cities? This panel is a discussion from federal and state perspectives on the current status of the Executive’s implementation of immigration law and the scope of the Executive Branch’s power and discretion in the area of immigration. Topics include: Prosecutorial discretion in the enforcement of immigration law, the Executive’s statutory and constitutional power to exclude aliens from entry, sanctuary cities and the potential consequences of refusing to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, and whether statements made on the campaign trail can be used in determining the legality of an Executive order. The panel will be moderated by Judge Jerry Smith.
