The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 11-10 Thursday to advance President Joe Biden’s nomination of Ur Jaddou for director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
Key Points:
Additional Information: Biden announced Jaddou’s nomination in April, and the Judiciary Committee held a confirmation hearing May 26. As director of USCIS, Jaddou would lead the agency’s efforts to improve immigration policies and processes, including the implementation of President Joe Biden’s Feb. 2 Executive Order on legal immigration. BAL will continue to track the confirmation process and USCIS’s policies on immigration, and will provide updates on important developments as they occur.
