About this episode
In this episode, we break down the U.S. administration's sweeping halt on nearly all immigration benefits for applicants from 19 designated high-risk countries following the killing of a National Guard soldier in Washington, DC. We explore how this freeze affects families, workers, students, and long-time residents, as well as the brewing legal and civil liberties battles over whether this move is a necessary security measure or an overreach that punishes people based on nationality rather than individual risk.
