Laura Reiff,
Co-Chair of the GT Business
Immigration and Compliance Practice,
shares her thoughts on comprehensive
immigration reform (CIR): “I think
that we will see a surge of interest
in the CIR debate over the next few
months. The White House is
committed to CIR, key Senators are
ramping up for a debate and the
Congressional Hispanic Caucus is
continuing its vigilance on moving
CIR down the playing field.” GT
will continue to report on this
topic of interest to our readers. |
