The Vicious Cycle of Amnesty Advocacy Continues

We’re joined by George Fishman of the Center for Immigration Studies to discuss the lies of farm worker amnesty. Fishman wrote an important piece explaining how the same excuses for the farm industry are what led to the failures of the 1986 amnesty. It created a vicious cycle of amnesty and more importation of cheap labor by incentivizing farms never to mechanize and to continue relying on the cheapest labor the politicians are willing to import. We also discuss what it will take to bump up deportations. If we fail to do so, there is a real likelihood that Trump will make an aggressive push for amnesty at the end of his presidency.
