Climate migrants deserve stronger protections, ABA House says

The ABA House of Delegates called for increased protection for immigrants in a pair of resolutions at the ABA Midyear Meeting in Phoenix on Monday. Resolution 600 urges the U.S. government to introduce new or expand existing immigration pathways for people who must relocate to the United States because of the effects of climate change. It also urges the federal government to support vulnerable countries and communities in their efforts to combat climate-related displacement.
