Show Notes
Many people disagree on solutions for the challenges in the U.S. immigration system.
While each branch of government continues to arrive at an impasse, employers face labor shortages. The demographics of an aging population and declining birth rates are indisputable. More people worldwide are fleeing societal collapses, climate change and persecution. And over 10 million people lack legal immigration status in the United States, with immigration courts facing a backlog of over 3 million deportation cases.
Join Cornell Law School professor Stephen Yale-Loehr and Distinguished Visiting Immigration Scholars Amy Nice, Charles Kamasaki, Marielena Hincapié, Randel Johnson and Theresa Cardinal Brown as they discuss what immigration laws and policies might change post-election and next year.
