how have the immigration laws changed since 9/11?

Answer 1

There is a stronger background check procedure on new and old immigrant's. Citizen's report more than ever before suspicions they have about immigrant's, especially those who are arab. The laws have not changed so much, just the careful eye of immigration, and the government. If we were to have another terrorist attack, by anyone, not just arabs, the USA government will have a lot to explain, and they don't want that! They will lose whatever faith the American people ever had in them, and there will assuredly be more wars on those that committed the act againt us.

Answer 2

It takes longer leaving and entering this country.I travel a lot on business and there seems to be tighter security.I don't think they have done much tho on our southern border to secure it in any way..The laws themselves I don't think have changed that much,we have good laws they just need to be enforced to the letter.I agree on the drivers license, needing to show more documentation to even renew.

Answer 3

I know it's more difficult for foreign students to come here, particularly from Muslim countries.
Motor vehicles in Florida, and probably most other states as well, now requires proof of legal presence before issuing or even renewing a drivers license.

Answer 4

They have changed a lot! The main differences is the disbanding of the INS and the creation of the USCIS which is controlled by the Department of Homeland Security. Title 8 US CODE: 1103 grants the Secretary of Homeland Security the power, and authority to enforce all laws relating to the immigration and naturalization of aliens, control and guard the boundaries and borders of the United States against the illegal entry of aliens and shall, in his discretion. He shall have the power and duty to control appoint for that purpose such number of employees of the Service as to him shall appear necessary and proper. He may require or authorize any employee of the Service or the Department of Justice to perform or exercise any of the powers, privileges, or duties conferred or imposed by this chapter or regulations issued there under upon any other employee of the Service. He is authorized to confer or impose upon any employee of the United States, with the consent of the head of the Department or other independent establishment under whose jurisdiction the employee is serving, any of the powers, privileges, or duties conferred or imposed by this chapter or regulations issued there under upon officers or employees of the Service.. He may, with the concurrence of the Secretary of State, establish offices of the Service in foreign countries; and, after consultation with the Secretary of State, he may, whenever in his judgment such action may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this chapter, detail employees of the Service for duty in foreign countries.

Any of the employees in Homeland Security even foreign nations can all change laws, rules, and regulations. The law let Chinese national took away my constructional rights, and make up rules and laws no matter how arbitrary or capricious they may be. The law is not only on their side, it’s at obedience,

America’s Autocrat Agents have even more power than the mere enforcement law. Their independent autonomy and autocratic ascendancy also comes with ambassadorial immunity, ability to arrest, arraign, assail or acquit anyone as they see fit. They can use the accommodations of the local authorities, they can exercise the to authority acquire anyone’s private property, or simply construct their own.

They do this with their allowance to allocate Federal funds appropriated for the administration and enforcement of the laws relating to immigration, naturalization, and alien registration. They have finances necessary clothing, medical care, necessary guard hire, and the housing, care, and security of persons detained by the Service pursuant to Federal law under an agreement with a State or political subdivision of a State.

Answer 5

I don't know for sure, but I guess they probably got more careful who they let in.
