EXPERT ALERTS:

Supreme Court's Partial Lifting of President Trump's Travel Ban
Lua Yuille
Associate Professor of Law
University of Kansas
"It looks like the Supreme Court has created a significant issue for lower courts to grapple with in the coming months. The majority of visa categories already require noncitizens hoping to enter the U.S. to have documented connections to the country. So, we can expect some interesting moves from courts deciding what counts as a 'bona fide relationship.'"
Yuille can discuss the Supreme Court's partial lifting of President Trump's travel ban, the upcoming oral arguments on the case, what it means for immigrants, immigration law and more.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Visit to the U.S.
Raj Bhala
Associate Dean for International and Comparative Law and Rice Distinguished Professor
University of Kansas
"The visit deserves more attention than it has been getting. The two pluralistic societies share not only a long-standing commitment to constitutional secular democracy, but also a strong desire for robust economic relations and stability across the Asia-Pacific region. From the fact that roughly one out of every four new entrants into the labor market between now and 2025 comes from India, to the rising prominence of Bollywood movies and music, it's essential Americans become as conversant with India as they are with Ireland or Italy."
Bhala, an Indian-American and regular columnist for Bloomberg India, has written extensively on international trade law and related topics between India and the U.S., as well as trade throughout the world. He has written dozens of journal articles and the books "Modern GATT Law," the leading textbook on international trade law, "Understanding Islamic Law (Shari'a)" and "TPP Objectively: Law, Economics, and National Security of History's Largest, Longest Free Trade Agreement." He is available to discuss Modi's visit to the U.S., trade, economics, national security, and a host of other topics.
