Trump Won’t Change the Fact That America Needs Immigrants

About this episode

<p>Donald Trump has promised to severely curtail legal and illegal immigration as he takes office for the second time.

Immigrants, Appelbaum explains, are the country’s “rocket fuel,” and he argues for specific legal changes to ensure the United States’ immigration policy matches its national interests.</p><br/> <p>Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
