With immigration issues in the news today and in the face of numerous Presidential Executive Orders, federal court cases, and Congressional action, Sussman will discuss who can presently come to the United States as a nonimmigrant (e.g. visitor, student, temporary worker), immigrant, or refugee. She will also explore some of the impact here in Vermont.
