Lawyers strike and protest against the immigration law

Members of associations rally to protest against a French bill relating to the right of asylum and immigration outside the Council of State, in Paris, on February 21, 2018. French President Emmanuel Macron's government is presenting its first big immigration bill, which human rights organizations criticize as repressive toward asylum-seekers. The plan will reduce the period of application for asylum to six months maximum, down from about one year including appeal. (Photo by Michel Stoupak/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
