His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"headTitle": "KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>The U.S. killing of a top Iranian military leader, Qassem Soleimani, in an airstrike in Baghdad this week has raised thorny legal questions. Experts disagree over whether the U.S. had the legal authority to launch \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/02/793208096/iraqi-tv-says-top-iranian-military-leader-killed-in-rocket-strikes-on-iraqi-airp\">the deadly strike.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump stated that Soleimani was plotting \"imminent and sinister attacks on American diplomats and American personnel, but we caught him in the act and terminated him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The powerful Iranian commander led a shadowy elite military organization called the Quds Force. In recent months, the U.S. says the group has backed an Iraqi militia that has launched numerous attacks on U.S. personnel, including Tuesday's attempt to storm the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts disagree on how to characterize this killing. \"I think the best definition would be either one of assassination or murder,\" Gary Solis, a retired Marine who taught on the laws of war at West Point, tells NPR. He says what happened is comparable to Iran killing a high-ranking U.S. military official with a bomb on U.S. soil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assassination is prohibited by a U.S. executive order, says Ashley Deeks, a University of Virginia law professor who focuses on the laws of war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[pullquote size=\"large\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Ashley Deeks, University of Virginia law professor\"] \"As a legal matter, if he were intimately involved in planning and blessing these attacks, then that doesn't seem to render it as assassination.\"[/pullquote]\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She thinks it is unlikely this meets the definition of an assassination: \"A lawful killing during an armed conflict does not constitute an assassination,\" Deeks says. \"As a legal matter, if he were intimately involved in planning and blessing these attacks, then that doesn't seem to render it as assassination.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A State Department official agrees. He was asked by NPR's Michele Kelemen whether this constituted an assassination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Assassinations are not allowed in the law,\" the official said, and offered two criteria that authorities weighed. \"Do you have overwhelming evidence that somebody is going to launch a military or terrorist attack against you?\" the State Department official said. \"Check that box.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11793796\" label=\"More Related Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The official added that the administration also explored whether there was another way to stop Soleimani, such as having him arrested, and determined there was \"no way.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Was killing Soleimani legal under U.S. domestic law? \"It's clearly lawful,\" says John Bellinger, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and former legal adviser to the Department of State under the George W. Bush administration. \"It's clearly an exercise of the president's constitutional authority as commander in chief and chief executive to use force in the national interest.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The answer is less straightforward for Scott Anderson, a fellow at the Brookings Institution who served as the legal adviser for the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad during the Obama administration. He notes that in the U.S., \"the legal views as to what is permitted by the law in terms of the use of military force really is pretty well-defined by the executive branch itself.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because Congress has not imposed substantive limits on the executive's use of force and federal courts have appeared reluctant to intervene, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, some members of Congress have occasionally criticized the fact that complicated wars grinding on in the Middle East have been justified by \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/04/28/526058226/time-to-consult-congress-over-use-of-force-against-isis-lawmakers-say\">legislation passed nearly\u003c/a> two decades ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. officials did not state a specific legal basis for the strike until Friday evening, when Trump's national security adviser, Robert O'Brien, cited the 2002 Authorization for Use of Military Force, which ushered in the war against Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq. O'Brien also said that the authorization was consistent with the president's constitutional authorities as commander in chief to defend the nation and forces against attacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Brien did not elaborate on the nature of the threat. The strike against Soleimani was carried out without officially notifying Congress ahead of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson says that the Trump administration's legal justifications are \"adopting a stance that pushes a little beyond what it and prior presidential administrations ... have done in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says it's hard to argue that the action against Soleimani is completely unlawful under U.S. law – but said that justifications may rely on interpretations of law that are controversial or antiquated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jack Goldsmith, a professor at Harvard Law School, notes that presidential war powers have been steadily expanding for years – and that Congress has largely gone along with it. \"Our country has, quite self-consciously, given one person, the President, an enormous sprawling military and enormous discretion to use it in ways that can easily lead to a massive war,\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/jacklgoldsmith/status/1213083362539266053?s=20\">he said on Twitter\u003c/a>. \"That is our system: one person decides.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/jacklgoldsmith/status/1213083362539266053?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legality of this killing under international law, rather than domestic, appears harder to assess. Bellinger says that hinges on the nature of the threat that Soleimani posed. \"The administration needs to put out more facts as to why they believe that Soleimani presented an imminent threat to the United States and U.S. forces,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deeks says the U.S. appears to be arguing that the strike was an act of anticipatory self-defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The idea there is that you have a right of self-defense against armed attacks,\" Deeks says. \"And many people think you have a right to act before the armed attack has actually hit you, if you have very good reason to think the attack is imminent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Agnes Callamard, the U.N. special rapporteur on extrajudicial executions, questions whether this strike would meet the standard needed to justify its legality on those grounds. \"The test for so-called anticipatory self-defense is very narrow: It must be a necessity that is 'instant, overwhelming, and leaving no choice of means, and no moment of deliberation'. This test is unlikely to be met in these particular cases,\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AgnesCallamard/status/1212918164453019648?s=20\">she tweeted\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/AgnesCallamard/status/1212918164453019648?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I hope the U.S. has rock-solid, written evidence of a continuing or an ongoing or a planned attack on the United States or its interests,\" says Solis. \"You've got to have more than an assertion that plans were underway.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another complicated legal aspect of this attack is the fact that it occurred within Iraq.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Generally speaking, international law says that states are not supposed to use military force on each other's territories without the consent of the host state,\" Anderson notes, though he says that the U.S. has argued previously that when a host government is unable or unwilling to address a threat, the state affected by the threat can take action without the host's consent. That's a controversial argument, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Iraqi leaders are responding angrily at the attack, which also killed an Iraqi official. \"The assassination of an Iraqi military commander who holds an official position is considered aggression on Iraq ... and the liquidation of leading Iraqi figures or those from a brotherly country on Iraqi soil is a massive breach of sovereignty,\" Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi said, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/03/793289176/how-is-the-world-reacting-to-the-u-s-assassination-of-irans-qassem-soleimani\">as NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.

Experts disagree over whether the U.S. had the legal authority to launch \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/02/793208096/iraqi-tv-says-top-iranian-military-leader-killed-in-rocket-strikes-on-iraqi-airp\">the deadly strike.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump stated that Soleimani was plotting \"imminent and sinister attacks on American diplomats and American personnel, but we caught him in the act and terminated him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The powerful Iranian commander led a shadowy elite military organization called the Quds Force. In recent months, the U.S. says the group has backed an Iraqi militia that has launched numerous attacks on U.S. personnel, including Tuesday's attempt to storm the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts disagree on how to characterize this killing. \"I think the best definition would be either one of assassination or murder,\" Gary Solis, a retired Marine who taught on the laws of war at West Point, tells NPR. He says what happened is comparable to Iran killing a high-ranking U.S. military official with a bomb on U.S. soil.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assassination is prohibited by a U.S. executive order, says Ashley Deeks, a University of Virginia law professor who focuses on the laws of war.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Bush administration. \"It's clearly an exercise of the president's constitutional authority as commander in chief and chief executive to use force in the national interest.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The answer is less straightforward for Scott Anderson, a fellow at the Brookings Institution who served as the legal adviser for the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad during the Obama administration. He notes that in the U.S., \"the legal views as to what is permitted by the law in terms of the use of military force really is pretty well-defined by the executive branch itself.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because Congress has not imposed substantive limits on the executive's use of force and federal courts have appeared reluctant to intervene, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, some members of Congress have occasionally criticized the fact that complicated wars grinding on in the Middle East have been justified by \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/04/28/526058226/time-to-consult-congress-over-use-of-force-against-isis-lawmakers-say\">legislation passed nearly\u003c/a> two decades ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. officials did not state a specific legal basis for the strike until Friday evening, when Trump's national security adviser, Robert O'Brien, cited the 2002 Authorization for Use of Military Force, which ushered in the war against Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq. O'Brien also said that the authorization was consistent with the president's constitutional authorities as commander in chief to defend the nation and forces against attacks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Brien did not elaborate on the nature of the threat. The strike against Soleimani was carried out without officially notifying Congress ahead of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anderson says that the Trump administration's legal justifications are \"adopting a stance that pushes a little beyond what it and prior presidential administrations ... have done in the past.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says it's hard to argue that the action against Soleimani is completely unlawful under U.S. law – but said that justifications may rely on interpretations of law that are controversial or antiquated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jack Goldsmith, a professor at Harvard Law School, notes that presidential war powers have been steadily expanding for years – and that Congress has largely gone along with it. \"Our country has, quite self-consciously, given one person, the President, an enormous sprawling military and enormous discretion to use it in ways that can easily lead to a massive war,\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/jacklgoldsmith/status/1213083362539266053?s=20\">he said on Twitter\u003c/a>. \"That is our system: one person decides.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Bellinger says that hinges on the nature of the threat that Soleimani posed. \"The administration needs to put out more facts as to why they believe that Soleimani presented an imminent threat to the United States and U.S. forces,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deeks says the U.S. appears to be arguing that the strike was an act of anticipatory self-defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The idea there is that you have a right of self-defense against armed attacks,\" Deeks says. \"And many people think you have a right to act before the armed attack has actually hit you, if you have very good reason to think the attack is imminent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Agnes Callamard, the U.N. special rapporteur on extrajudicial executions, questions whether this strike would meet the standard needed to justify its legality on those grounds. \"The test for so-called anticipatory self-defense is very narrow: It must be a necessity that is 'instant, overwhelming, and leaving no choice of means, and no moment of deliberation'. This test is unlikely to be met in these particular cases,\" \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AgnesCallamard/status/1212918164453019648?s=20\">she tweeted\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That's a controversial argument, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Iraqi leaders are responding angrily at the attack, which also killed an Iraqi official. \"The assassination of an Iraqi military commander who holds an official position is considered aggression on Iraq ... and the liquidation of leading Iraqi figures or those from a brotherly country on Iraqi soil is a massive breach of sovereignty,\" Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi said, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/03/793289176/how-is-the-world-reacting-to-the-u-s-assassination-of-irans-qassem-soleimani\">as NPR reported\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.

Individuals classified as Hispanic comprised 39.8% of those stopped while making up 41.4% of the state's residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The biggest racial disparity in stops compared to local population was reported by the San Francisco Police Department. Slightly more than one in four of the nearly 55,000 stops the SFPD recorded in the second half of 2018 involved black individuals. The city's population is 5% black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SFPD did not respond immediately to a request for comment. The union for the department's rank-and-file members, the San Francisco Police Officers Association called the statistics the report uses \"incomplete, skewed and inaccurate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, SFPOA President Tony Montoya said that among other problems with the data, it \"does not take into account the behavior observed by peace officers that justified each respective interaction or the specific locations where crime rates dictate a larger peace officer presence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other agencies that submitted data for the report were the California Highway Patrol, Los Angeles Police Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Riverside County Sheriff's Department, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, San Diego Police Department and San Diego County Sheriff's Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Jose and Oakland police departments, part of a group of the next seven-largest police agencies in the state, began collecting the state-required stop data in 2019 and must report to the state by April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the other racial disparities identified in Thursday's report:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Officers searched black individuals whom they stopped at a rate of 18.7%, some 2.9 times the rate at which they searched white individuals whom they stopped, 6.5%.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The highest \"yield rate\" for searches — searches in which officers found illegal drugs, open containers of alcohol or other \"contraband\" — was for white individuals who had been stopped: 24.2%. Though black drivers were searched more often, the yield rate was lower, 22.5%.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A lower percentage of black people (52%) than white people (60.7%) were subject to \"enforcement actions\" — citation or arrest — after a stop. But black people who were the subject of enforcement actions were more likely to be arrested, with 36.8% getting tickets and 15.2% taken into custody. Among white people, 49.4% were cited and 11.3% arrested.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers who created the Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board hoped to learn if agencies are indeed more likely to stop minority motorists for what commonly has been called “driving while black.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a critical first step in the fight to end racial profiling,” said the board’s co-chair, Sahar Durali, who is associate director of litigation and policy at Neighborhood Legal Services of Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public Policy Institute of California criminal justice researcher Magnus Lofstrom, who consulted with the board's researchers, said the racial disparity data “does not tell us the reasons behind those differences, and that’s where we need to go next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At this point the analysis has not been done to answer those questions, whether it’s racial bias or there are other circumstances,” such as where the stops take place, Lofstrom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board recommended the agencies refine their data collection; review and revise their policies and practices; and improve supervision and training. Board members called on legislators to provide more money for those purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state requires police to individually record the “perceived” race, gender and sexual orientation but it does not allow officers to confirm their impressions by questioning the person who was stopped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re trying to understand to what extent there might be racial bias. So we want to capture what the officer perceives the individual is,” Lofstrom said. “It’s the perception that I think is relevant if people have different experiences with law enforcement that are prejudicial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board’s co-chairman, Kings County Sheriff Dave Robinson, said in a statement that the report “is just the beginning of information that will allow even greater transparency for law enforcement and our communities – allowing us to grow together working on local and statewide areas of concern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP accounted for nearly 60% of stops, and the two Los Angeles agencies about 25%. The CHP and Los Angeles Sheriff's Department did not respond to requests for comment, but Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore told his department's Racial and Identity Profiling Act working group to review the report's findings and recommendations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our expectation that every contact with the public is conducted in a lawful and respectful manner, based on reasonable suspicion or consent regardless of race or ethnicity,” the LAPD said in a statement, noting that the racial disparities alone don't prove or disprove racial profiling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Virtually all California police agencies will be required to collect stop data after Jan. 1, 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was updated to add a comment from the San Francisco Police Officers Association.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story includes reporting from The Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Slightly more than one in four of the nearly 55,000 stops the SFPD recorded in the second half of 2018 involved black individuals. The city's population is 5% black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SFPD did not respond immediately to a request for comment. The union for the department's rank-and-file members, the San Francisco Police Officers Association called the statistics the report uses \"incomplete, skewed and inaccurate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, SFPOA President Tony Montoya said that among other problems with the data, it \"does not take into account the behavior observed by peace officers that justified each respective interaction or the specific locations where crime rates dictate a larger peace officer presence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other agencies that submitted data for the report were the California Highway Patrol, Los Angeles Police Department, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Riverside County Sheriff's Department, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, San Diego Police Department and San Diego County Sheriff's Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Jose and Oakland police departments, part of a group of the next seven-largest police agencies in the state, began collecting the state-required stop data in 2019 and must report to the state by April.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the other racial disparities identified in Thursday's report:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Officers searched black individuals whom they stopped at a rate of 18.7%, some 2.9 times the rate at which they searched white individuals whom they stopped, 6.5%.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The highest \"yield rate\" for searches — searches in which officers found illegal drugs, open containers of alcohol or other \"contraband\" — was for white individuals who had been stopped: 24.2%. Though black drivers were searched more often, the yield rate was lower, 22.5%.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A lower percentage of black people (52%) than white people (60.7%) were subject to \"enforcement actions\" — citation or arrest — after a stop. But black people who were the subject of enforcement actions were more likely to be arrested, with 36.8% getting tickets and 15.2% taken into custody. Among white people, 49.4% were cited and 11.3% arrested.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers who created the Racial and Identity Profiling Advisory Board hoped to learn if agencies are indeed more likely to stop minority motorists for what commonly has been called “driving while black.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a critical first step in the fight to end racial profiling,” said the board’s co-chair, Sahar Durali, who is associate director of litigation and policy at Neighborhood Legal Services of Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public Policy Institute of California criminal justice researcher Magnus Lofstrom, who consulted with the board's researchers, said the racial disparity data “does not tell us the reasons behind those differences, and that’s where we need to go next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At this point the analysis has not been done to answer those questions, whether it’s racial bias or there are other circumstances,” such as where the stops take place, Lofstrom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board recommended the agencies refine their data collection; review and revise their policies and practices; and improve supervision and training. Board members called on legislators to provide more money for those purposes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state requires police to individually record the “perceived” race, gender and sexual orientation but it does not allow officers to confirm their impressions by questioning the person who was stopped.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re trying to understand to what extent there might be racial bias. So we want to capture what the officer perceives the individual is,” Lofstrom said. “It’s the perception that I think is relevant if people have different experiences with law enforcement that are prejudicial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board’s co-chairman, Kings County Sheriff Dave Robinson, said in a statement that the report “is just the beginning of information that will allow even greater transparency for law enforcement and our communities – allowing us to grow together working on local and statewide areas of concern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP accounted for nearly 60% of stops, and the two Los Angeles agencies about 25%. The CHP and Los Angeles Sheriff's Department did not respond to requests for comment, but Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore told his department's Racial and Identity Profiling Act working group to review the report's findings and recommendations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is our expectation that every contact with the public is conducted in a lawful and respectful manner, based on reasonable suspicion or consent regardless of race or ethnicity,” the LAPD said in a statement, noting that the racial disparities alone don't prove or disprove racial profiling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Virtually all California police agencies will be required to collect stop data after Jan. 1, 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was updated to add a comment from the San Francisco Police Officers Association.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story includes reporting from The Associated Press.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The agency would also get rid of the discounted rate for people petitioning to become U.S. citizens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an unprecedented move, USCIS would also charge some asylum-seekers $50 to request the protections, and $490 to apply for a first-time work permit while their cases are pending. The only three other countries that charge asylum-seekers a fee to consider their applications are Iran, Fiji and Australia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"USCIS spokesperson\"]‘This proposed adjustment in fees ensures more applicants cover the true cost of their applications and minimizes subsidies from an already over-extended system.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USCIS said the changes were necessary to recover full operating costs. The agency estimates current fees would leave it underfunded by $1.3 billion per year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike most federal agencies that are funded through taxpayer money, USCIS relies on immigrant application fees to pay for most of its operations and services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This proposed adjustment in fees ensures more applicants cover the true cost of their applications and minimizes subsidies from an already over-extended system,” a USCIS spokesperson said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, USCIS offers to \u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/feewaiver\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">waive the citizenship application fee\u003c/a> for extremely low-income immigrants. In 2016, the agency began cutting the naturalization fee in half for immigrants with slightly higher incomes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USCIS issued a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11782917/fee-waivers-for-citizenship-applications-harder-to-get-under-new-rule\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">separate rule\u003c/a> in October that made it harder for low-income immigrants to qualify for fee waivers. This would have prevented about 200,000 people in California from becoming citizens, critics say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Dec. 13, a federal judge in San Francisco \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/10/politics/federal-court-halts-changes-fee-waiver-for-naturalization/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blocked\u003c/a> the administration from continuing to implement the changes, which stopped allowing immigrants to use means-tested benefits like Medi-Cal as a way to qualify for the fee waiver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents say the proposed rule is another attempt by the Trump administration to restrict legal immigration, with potentially lasting consequences for future U.S. elections since naturalization enables immigrants to vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Catherine Seitz, legal director at the Immigration Institute of the Bay Area\"]‘I think it’ll make it so that so many people won’t be able to apply for naturalization, they’ll have to put it off because they have to pay their rent first or feed their family first.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The impact could be huge in California, which has more than\u003ca href=\"http://data.cmsny.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> 2 million adults\u003c/a> eligible to naturalize — about a quarter of the total population nationwide eligible to become citizens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposed fee hikes combined with further restrictions to fee exemptions would negatively impact most of the people served by the \u003ca href=\"https://iibayarea.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Immigration Institute of the Bay Area\u003c/a>, said Catherine Seitz, the. nonprofit’s legal director. The group helped more than 1,800 immigrants naturalize over the last year through citizenship workshops and legal aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many people won’t be able to apply for naturalization. They’ll have to put it off because they have to pay their rent first or feed their family first,” said Seitz. “It’s “frustrating they are going to raise fees at a time when they are just not providing the services that they should be providing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A big complaint is the growing wait times for all kinds of immigration applications nationwide. Applicants for naturalization must now wait an average of \u003ca href=\"https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/historic-pt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10 months\u003c/a> for USCIS to process their petitions, compared to six months in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has hired additional staff and expanded its facilities to keep up with an “extraordinary demand” for services, said USCIS spokeswoman Jessica Collins. In 2019, the agency naturalized about \u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/tools/resources-congress/testimonies-and-speeches/hearing-unprecedented-migration-us-southern-borderthe-year-review-senate-committee-homeland-security-and-government-affairs-november-13-2019-acting-director-kenneth-cuccinelli\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">833,000 new citizens\u003c/a>, the most in more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in recent years, the agency has also increased security screenings and other bureaucratic hurdles for applicants, said Diego Iniguez-Lopez, policy and campaigns manager for the \u003ca href=\"https://partnershipfornewamericans.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Partnership for New Americans\u003c/a>, which opposes the proposed rule. Those changes — such as increasing the length of the naturalization form to 20 pages — have added work for agency staffers and contributed to a backlog of more than 700,000 naturalization applications, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of these policies are slowing down the process for USCIS to do its mission, which is adjudicate immigration applications,” said Iniguez-Lopez. Now, they’re trying to put the new expenditures “on the backs of low-income immigrants, which we think is fundamentally unfair and getting away from what USCIS should be doing.”[aside tag=\"citizenship\" label=\"Related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who become U.S. citizens are more likely to have higher incomes and own their homes, compared to immigrants who don’t get citizenship, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11660853/immigrants-seek-stability-of-u-s-citizenship-but-cost-is-often-a-barrier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">according to\u003c/a> researchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public comment period on USCIS’s proposal ended Dec. 30. Advocates don’t expect a final rule until April or May because the federal government must review more than 29,000 comments submitted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seitz believes any changes would not significantly impact the next presidential election because of its timing and the extended processing times for naturalization applications. But she said the Trump administration’s proposal could reduce the number of naturalized voters in future elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter from California mayors to the agency isn’t the only time elected officials have spoken out against the proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In November, a group of nearly 50 mayors and several members of Congress from California and other states \u003ca href=\"https://meng.house.gov/sites/meng.house.gov/files/Letter.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">urged\u003c/a> USCIS to withdraw its proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. Senator Kamala Harris and five other democratic senators also raised their own concerns in December about some of the proposal’s provisions, such as the transfer of more than $112 million from USCIS fees to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under U.S. immigration law, funds from USCIS fees are exclusively for processing immigration applications and naturalization services, not immigration enforcement, the senators wrote in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.harris.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Comment%20Letter%20re%20USCIS%20Fee%20Rule%20FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">letter\u003c/a> rebuking the agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The group helped more than 1,800 immigrants naturalize over the last year through citizenship workshops and legal aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many people won’t be able to apply for naturalization. They’ll have to put it off because they have to pay their rent first or feed their family first,” said Seitz. “It’s “frustrating they are going to raise fees at a time when they are just not providing the services that they should be providing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A big complaint is the growing wait times for all kinds of immigration applications nationwide. Applicants for naturalization must now wait an average of \u003ca href=\"https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/historic-pt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10 months\u003c/a> for USCIS to process their petitions, compared to six months in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has hired additional staff and expanded its facilities to keep up with an “extraordinary demand” for services, said USCIS spokeswoman Jessica Collins. In 2019, the agency naturalized about \u003ca href=\"https://www.uscis.gov/tools/resources-congress/testimonies-and-speeches/hearing-unprecedented-migration-us-southern-borderthe-year-review-senate-committee-homeland-security-and-government-affairs-november-13-2019-acting-director-kenneth-cuccinelli\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">833,000 new citizens\u003c/a>, the most in more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in recent years, the agency has also increased security screenings and other bureaucratic hurdles for applicants, said Diego Iniguez-Lopez, policy and campaigns manager for the \u003ca href=\"https://partnershipfornewamericans.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">National Partnership for New Americans\u003c/a>, which opposes the proposed rule. Those changes — such as increasing the length of the naturalization form to 20 pages — have added work for agency staffers and contributed to a backlog of more than 700,000 naturalization applications, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All of these policies are slowing down the process for USCIS to do its mission, which is adjudicate immigration applications,” said Iniguez-Lopez. Now, they’re trying to put the new expenditures “on the backs of low-income immigrants, which we think is fundamentally unfair and getting away from what USCIS should be doing.”\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
