About this episode
President Trump has said he supports “legal” immigration, but his administration has dismantled or limited pathways for immigrants to attain legal status. Visa programs including the diversity lottery are on hiatus. Citizenship ceremonies have been canceled. Wait times for green card approvals are stretching longer. We’ll talk about the Trump Administration’s moves to limit immigration and what pathways remain.
Guests:
