Our community continues to grow in its influence and impact. We’re pleased to share that AAF Board Chair Joseph M. Azam was recently appointed by the President of the American Bar Association as a Commissioner on the ABA’s influential Immigration Commission. The Commission works to coordinate and strengthen the ABA’s response to legal developments impacting immigrants and newcomers. It also plays a powerful role in providing guidance and conducting impactful advocacy on today’s most pressing immigration issues. We also congratulate Afghan-American immigration lawyer Spojmie Nasiri for her appointment on the Commission this year. This marks the first term in the history of the Commission that Afghan-American lawyers have been appointed to serve as Commissioners. #afghanamerican #afghan #afghanamericans #immigration #publicpolicy #civilrights #asylum #community #dueprocess #legal #lawyers #law #immigrationlaw #aba
