Hard to Immigrate Legally When Immigration Rules Change Weekly

If you think doing your taxes is complicated, try navigating immigration law under the current regime, says Sioux Falls immigration attorney Taneeza Islam:

“People oftentimes joke that tax law is very complicated because there’s new policies and procedures that come down every year,” Islam said. “Well, imagine that, but new policies and procedures are happening weekly. You know, and on top of that, we have litigation in a lot of the policies that this Administration has tried to implement but other entities are litigating. So it’s always just figuring out where we are in the process” [Lauren Soulek, “Immigration Lawyer Details ‘Uncertain’ Legal Environment,” KELO-TV, 2026.09.28].

How are the workers we need supposed to immigrate legally, and how are businesses supposed to recruit the international labor pool, and how are foreign entrepreneurs supposed to launch the next Fortune 500 companies, if we keep changing the rules for immigration?

I thought one of the things Republicans stood for was certainty, stability, and simplicity from government so that ever-evolving regulations wouldn’t price people out of engaging in free-market activity. But that conservative principle went out the window when a few self-sabotaging angry white dupes want to keep America’s free market to themselves and scare brown people away.
