ICE Can Fix This Issue Today

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog, Immigration, Marshall Goff

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) is a sub-agency under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

This discrepancy in the number of people in detention and the money allocated to appropriately detain them resulted in DHS taking funds away from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Coast Guard, among other agencies, and reallocating the funds to ICE’s detention efforts.

Marriage Green Cards

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog, Immigration, Marshall Goff

It seems like everyone I know is getting married these days. Wedding bells are ringing for couples all across the United States. My wife and I even got in on the madness when we were married last year. The wedding planning, registering for showers, and picking out invitations is enough stress for anyone. Some couples have even more pressure added to their lives because one of the spouses is not a Legal Permanent Resident (LPR) or United States Citizen. This little wrinkle should not add more stress for anyone who is planning a marriage or those who already tied the...

Smoking e-cigarettes has greatly spiked in popularity in the past few years and it is negatively impacting the youth in United States of America.
