Wikipedia description:

The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), founded on October 14, 1946, is a voluntary bar association of more than 15,000 attorneys and law professors who practice and teach immigration law. AILA member attorneys represent U.S. families seeking permanent residence for close family members, as well as U.S. businesses seeking talent from the global marketplace. AILA members also represent foreign students, entertainers, athletes, and asylum seekers, sometimes on a pro bono basis. AILA is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization that provides continuing legal education, information, professional services, and expertise through its 38 chapters and over 50 national committees. Its national headquarters are in Washington, D.C. The mission of the AILA is to promote justice and advocate for fair and legal immigration law and policy. They also aim to enhance the professional development of lawyers that work with them.
