History
Earlier this week, AG Jeff Sessions announced that the Trump administration would be abandoning DACA, the Obama era program for undocumented immigrant children. Frank and David discuss the history of legal and illegal immigration, including:
- What the first Congress thought about immigration and immigrants
- Why Asian immigrants were treated differently at the end of the 19th century
- How World War I changed US immigration policy
- Why the 1965 Immigration reform didn't turn out as its drafters intended
- The long-term consequences of the Bracero program
