There appears to be some effort by the White House to lay the groundwork for something. According to Immigration-law.com:

Without much publicity, there have been some developments in the USCIS leadership structure along with the new Director. The new Chief of Staff is Juliet K. Choi and the new Chief Counsel is Ur Mendoza Jaddou. The Chief of Staff appears to have served at the HHS Civil Right Division along with the current USCIS Director. The post of Chief Counsel has been vacant for quite a while and the new Director appointed Ms. Jaddou to assist him with the legal counsel. These changes may not bring with it any noticeable changes in management and policy of the USCIS, but along the way, the agency may witness some changes. We want to see some development towards more "open government" and active dialogue and feedback with consumers under the new leadership.

Why implement a new USCIS Chief of Councel now? USCIS seems to have functioned just fine without.
