In this bilingual live stream, immigration attorney Lorena Rivas answers a wide range of audience questions about U.S. immigration law. She opens by introducing herself and the purpose of the session, then devotes the majority of the discussion to the newly enacted Laken/Riley Act, explaining that the law mandates detention without bond for non‑citizens charged with any theft‑related offense, even minor shoplifting, and outlining the practical consequences for clients. Throughout the broadcast she addresses numerous related topics: timelines for immigration motions, VAWA petition limitations, citizenship benefits for parents, defenses for long‑term tourists, DACA renewal issues, the 220A parole program, military Parole in Place, cancellation of removal (42B), visa U and T eligibility and work‑permit timelines, adjustment of status, advance parole, and how criminal records intersect with immigration proceedings. She repeatedly provides concrete procedural advice, eligibility criteria, and contact information for her firm, emphasizing the importance of consulting an attorney before pleading guilty or traveling. The session ends with reminders about upcoming community events and encouragement to keep children in school despite pending state legislation.
