They are an independent, non-partisan research organization examining and critiquing the impact of immigration on the United States. He has testified numerous times before Congress and has published articles in many outlets. Jim regularly receives an email from the Department of Homeland Security with a listing of the arrests of what they call the Worst of the Worst. Nonetheless, officers serving under ICE are regularly being vilified by the media, community activists and by politicians, without regard for the magnitude of the work they are doing to make America safe. For example, when ICE shoots a person who is attempting to ram them with their vehicle, these same groups become unglued, yet stay silent when a person who is here illegally kills others on the roadways or rapes an innocent individual. So while the Iran war has dominated the news cycle in recent months, the issue of illegal immigration is still a hot-button one. Join Jim as he has Mark bring you up-to-date on the many facets that are part of this topic. For example, what's the latest concerning ICE and their use of masks and traffic stops, expedited removals by DHS, the birthright citizenship debate, non-citizen voting, should there be more worksite immigrant enforcement, the cost of illegal immigration to our nation, and more.
