Would Democrats fix immigration if they take control of Congress?
Seventy-five percent of Americans, across the political spectrum, believe immigration is good for the United States. But the immigration system itself is a mess. Republicans and Democrats have tried to fix it, with little success. If Democrats win the White House or the Senate this fall, would that change?
Thursday at 9 a.m., MPR News host Kerri Miller spoke about immigration reform with two experts. What would real transformation look like? And are the Democrats the ones to make it happen?
Guests:
Laura Collins, director of the Bush Institute-Southern Methodist University Economic Growth Initiative
Jennifer Piscopo, associate professor of politics and Latino/a studies at Occidental College
