Hosts: Stanford Law Professors Pamela Karlan and Joseph Bankman This episode retells the efforts of Stanford 3L and Army veteran Matthew Ball’s efforts to bring his Afghan translator, Qismat Amin, to the U.S. during the early days of the Trump administration. Qismat’s application under the Special Immigrant Visa program languished for years despite his service for the U.S. Army, which continued even after a shrapnel injury. The government finally approved Qismat’s visa following Matt’s extensive media and letter-writing campaign.
