The Immigration Question of Family Reunification Laws

By Anjali Kunapaneni, Duke University Class of 2020

February 15, 2018

Immigration permeates the modern political discourse - especially relevant under Trump’s presidency. Within this political context, an ever-present need exists to understand the legal implications of US immigration policy. Applicants admitted to the United States as permanent residents come through one of four different channels of entry, with the largest channel being family reunification. This program involves more than two thirds of the total permanent immigration numbers coming into the States each year.

Only immediate family members are eligible to petition under the family reunification program (1). The basis of the current policy regarding family reunification can be found in the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), otherwise known as the Hart–Celler Act, which abolished the nationality-based quota system and was responsible for creating preference visa categories that focused on immigrants' skills and family relationships with citizens or U.S. residents.

The definition which bounds immediate relatives is limited to “spouses and minor (under twenty-one years of age), unmarried children of a USC; parents of USCs who are ‘at least 21 years of age’; and widows, widowers, and children of deceased USCs” (2). Family-based classifications for immigrants are broken down into four categories with their own specific numerical limits. These include, “unmarried sons and daughters of USCs; spouses and adult, unmarried sons and daughters of legal permanent residents of the United States (LPRs); married sons and daughters of USCs; and brothers and sisters of adult USCs (over twenty-one years of age)” (2).

Within the context of this most common legal basis for immigration, there is still an ongoing controversy that persists regarding the number of legally admitted immigrants that enter the US each year focuses an examination onto family-based immigration and regenerates discourse over its proportion of total lawful permanent residents admitted. Among proposals of a number of inquirers include two congressionally mandated commissions which overhaul family-based admissions.

Some support the expansion of the numerical limitations of family-based classification. Those in favor of expanding family-based admissions beyond immediate family often reference the large population of prospective immigrants who, while having already been approved to be lawful permanent residents, must continue to wait for an immigrant visa coveted by a large number others, for years separated from their family who already live in the States. Those who oppose family-based admissions question whether or not the US has an obligation to reunite immigrant families beyond the nuclear base. Instead, they look to eliminate expansive family-oriented preference classifications and only allowing for immediate family of US citizens and permanent residents. These arguments recapitulate what previous congressionally mandated commissions on immigration reform made (3).

While this discourse has been on-going, family reunification laws have recently perforated the national conversation. As one of his first acts as president, Trump’s Executive Order 13769 caused a temporary halt in immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries. In response, a number of lower federal courts ruled that such an order violated the Immigration and Nationality Act’s “prohibitions of discrimination on the basis of nationality and religion” (4). In June of 2017, the Supreme Court “overrode both appeals courts and allowed the second ban to go into effect, but carved out an exemption for persons with ‘bona fide relationships’ in the US” (4). In December of 2017, Senior US District Judge James Robart granted a nationwide injunction to block the Trump administration’s constrictions on reunification efforts refugee families and has partially lifted a ban on refugees from the eleven Muslim-majority nations (5).

While substantiated in legal precedent, family reunification laws signify a starting line to some and a slippery slope to others. It continues to create controversy, and will certainly remain in the spotlight of the United States’ national discussion for decades to come (or, at the very least, the next three years).
