Immigration Edition.
In a speech in Ohio, President Trump called certain immigrants “predators” and “animals,” followed by remarks in New York against criminal Salvadoran gangs, in a hardline push for deportations. Also, the House of Representatives passed a spending bill with 1.6 billion to begin the border wall with Mexico: Will it survive the US Senate? And the Department of Justice released new guidelines to penalize Sanctuary Cities. Finally, the story of a Colombian immigrant grandfather who, facing deportation, sought refuge at a Catholic facility in New Mexico.
Guests: Maribel Hastings, Sr. Adviser, America’s Voice, Washington, DC; Vicki B. Gaubeca, Director, New Mexico Regional Center for Border Rights, American Civil Rights Union, Las Cruces, NM; Jorge Taborda, Sanctuary Refugee, Las Cruces, NM; Johana Bencomo, Organizer, CAFe, Las Cruces, NM.
