The Senate on Friday voted in favor of President Joe Biden’s nomination of
attorney Ur Jaddou to lead USCIS, making her the first Senate-confirmed
woman to lead the immigration agency since it was created nearly two decades
ago. Her nomination was confirmed in a 47-34 vote along party lines.
The daughter of immigrants from Mexico and Iraq, Jaddou brings years of
experience in immigration policy to the role, most recently as a director at
America’s Voice, an immigrant advocacy group, and before then, as chief
counsel for USCIS under the Obama administration.

During her Senate confirmation hearing in May, Jaddou said her top priority
as USCIS director would be to reduce processing times that have kept
thousands foreign citizens, and their employers, waiting months or longer
for visas and work permits to be approved.
She also pledged to work to improve the immigration agency’s financial
situation.
“My most immediate responsibilities, if confirmed, will be to return the
agency to firm solvency, resolve dramatically increasing processing times
and backlogs, and utilize 21st century tools,” Jaddou told lawmakers at the
hearing. | r*x
