League of Women Voters of Arkansas is launching a new Direct Democracy explainer series. Throughout this series, we'll cover the history of the process in Arkansas, how it's changed over the years, how to use this power to advance people-powered policy, and end with a discussion regarding the current state of play post-legislative session.

Our special guest, Ellen M. Weintraut, an immigration attorney and owner of Northwest Immigration Law, will share insights on immigration law, naturalization, and more. Originally from Rogers, Ellen focuses on family immigration, asylum, humanitarian visas, and removal defense.

She is licensed in Oregon and admitted to multiple U.S. Courts of Appeals. She also serves on the American Immigration Lawyers Association’s Membership and CIS Benefits Committees and is the AILA Local Liaison with USCIS in Fort Smith.

In her free time, she loves to travel with her husband and their two boys.
