Immigration Edition.
As Democrats work on a Plan C proposal to get the OK of the Senate parliamentarian for protections from deportation and work permits for immigrants, a House Committee approved a plan for permanent residency for millions as part of the Build Back Better package. The highest ranking Laitno in Congress discusses the prospects for immigration reform. In another news, in a major shift, the Biden administration issued new guidance barring immigration agents to arrest or search people in or near protected areas, such as schools, hospitals, parks, parades, demonstrations, temples and funerals. A legal expert explains. Finally, on the heels of recent incidents of Border Patrol violence against Black immigrants, community leaders from the Mexican border are in Washington to demand stricter oversight of the Border Patrol and other federal law enforcement agencies.
Guests: US Senator Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey, Washington, DC; Fernando Garcia, Executive Director, Border Network for Human Rights, El Paso, TX; Ariadna Renteria, Executive Director, Immigrant Legal Services of the Central Coast, Watsonville, CA.
