NATIONAL SECURITY AND IMMIGRATION POLICY
Since the catastrophic events of September 11, 2001, immigration policy has largely
been viewed through the lens of national security. CLINIC has tracked the numerous
immigration programs and policies that have been implemented for security reasons. It
has sought the expertise of counter-terror experts on which of these initiatives have
enhanced U.S. security and which have not. Its articles and conferences have
focused on the security and civil liberty implications of post-9/11 immigration policy
changes. A selection of its work follows."
