Last June, four months after Texas federal judge Andrew Hanen’s order to
freeze President’s DAPA and Expanded DACA programs—disclosure: the
Immigration Reform Law Institute has filed briefs in these cases—DHS’s
immigration policy makers apparently held a “Regulations Retreat” to
discuss “different options” for “open market Employment Authorization
Document (EAD) regulatory changes.” EAD is the statutory term for work
permits. From a memo recording these discussions, we now know that the
Obama DHS has, rather than pausing to allow the courts to assess the
constitutionality of its enforcement nullification initiatives, been
gearing up to roll out one or more of four plans drawn up at the
meeting, each one designed to provide EADs to millions of nonimmigrants,
including those lawfully present and visa overstayers, crippling the
actual employment-based visa system on the federal statute-book.
