Asylum in Crisis
HIAS Pennsylvania Zoom
Since Inauguration Day, the right to claim asylum in the United States has been under attack by the current administration. The federal government has increased the arrest and detention of asylum applicants, including those here in Pennsylvania. Procedures allowing rapid deportation without judicial review have been expanded.
These are just a few of the changes that HIAS Pennsylvania’s Asylum & Removal Defense Program Manager, Christopher Setz-Kelly, Esq., and Executive Director, Cathryn Miller-Wilson, will discuss during HIAS Pennsylvania’s virtual program, The State of Immigration in America: Asylum in Crisis. This program will be held via Zoom on Wednesday, July 30, 2025 at 7:00 PM EDT and attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.
The State of Immigration in America is a series of monthly programs with members of HIAS PA’s staff. The programs address the current challenges that immigrants are facing and what you can do to help your immigrant neighbors.
