DOJ rolls out case quotas for immigration judges.

From CNN:

Deportation train is coming for all of us. Choo-motherfucking-choo

They can suck my stephen miller.

The news just get worse day by day, lol.

wait i'm confused, don't judges have life tenure. why the fuck would they have to adhere to these metrics?

These are not really "judges" under the judicial branch.

These are EOIR judges under the purview of the executive branch.

All aboard!!!

The National Immigration Judges Association, whose recent collective bargaining agreement allows for performance metrics, strongly opposes the numerical targets and will explore options under federal labor law, said Dana Leigh Marks, a union spokeswoman.


“We believe the imposition of numerical performance metrics is completely, utterly contrary to judicial independence,” said Marks, who is also an immigration judge in San Francisco. “We believe assessing quality is fine, not quantity.”

Judges can argue that the nature of their cases justifies a lower completion rate, but Marks said keeping logs will add to their work burden and potentially create more backlog. She also said people may be more inclined to appeal decisions by arguing that the quotas denied them a fair hearing.”

Everyday is worse. Hope they can stop this..

How so?

Thank you for the clarification!
