Texas, Trump and Immigration

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Joe Miller explores how a Trump presidency is impacting the fluid border region between Texas and Mexico. Joe revisits a centre used to house incoming migrants which sees only a tenth of the amount of activity it did a year ago. We hear from Marlene Castro from the US Border Patrol, who explains apprehensions are down almost 50% year on year. And finally, San Antonio mayor Ron Nirenberg outlines his concerns over recent moves towards more restrictive legislation known as the SB4 law. (Picture: Marlene Castro, Credit: Sarah Treanor)
