Kelli Stump says that not in her “wildest dreams” could she have imagined the changes she’s seen during her year as director of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. The attorney has been litigating cases in the field for 19 years and at the end of this month, will conclude her tenure at the helm of the organization, which was founded nearly 80 years ago and has 17,000 members. The most dramatic changes took place on January 20, the day Donald Trump returned to the White House with the promise that he would carry out the largest deportation campaign in history. Through executive orders and other measures, the Republican president has launched a war on due process. “These are definitely dark times,” Stump says in her office near downtown Oklahoma City, the capital of Oklahoma.
