Tamar Jacoby, “Fixing America’s Immigration System”

Pointing the way beyond the outmoded, emotional debate between those who sympathize with immigrants and those who fear and dislike them–beyond “Fortress America” vs. “open borders”–journalist and author Tamar Jacoby will argue that we as a nation need to reassert control of the border and reestablish the rule of law, but that the only way to do so is with a more generous immigration policy. Drawing on reporting from the border, economic and demographic analyses, and her insider experience within the DC beltway, Jacoby will explain how Americans can regain their belief in the idea that the United States is–and should remain–a nation of immigrants.
