USCIS furloughs delayed

The anticipated August 3 furloughs have been postponed to August 31.  The announcement on July 24, 2020 came after Senate Appropriations Committee Vice Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) pressed USCIS to reverse course on its intended furloughs after he made public the fact that new revenue estimates showed the agency due to end the fiscal year in a surplus, and not the previously projected $571 million deficit.
