Summary: On November 20, 2014, President Obama, with much attention from the media and the public, announced executive action on immigration. Our discussion will address the specifics of the President’s actions, and the legality of those actions. What exactly was said and done by the President, and how do his actions differ from acts he previously asserted were beyond his unilateral power? Has the President exceeded his constitutional authority to act? What happens next? Please join us over the lunch hour for a discussion with three experts in the field. -- Featuring: Mr. Kamal Essaheb, Immigration Policy Attorney, National Immigration Law Center; Mr. David Rivkin, Partner, Baker & Hostetler LLP; and Mr. Ilya Shapiro, Senior Fellow in Constitutional Studies, Cato Institute.
