Episode 121: This Week in Immigration

from This Week in Immigration

The leak of the Supreme Court draft decision that would overturn the seminal Roe v. Wade abortion case has sent shockwaves through the country and raises questions and implications for other long-standing precedent Supreme Court decisions, including Plyler v. Doe, a 1982 decision that ruled that undocumented immigrant children could not be excluded from K through 12 public schools. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has expressed interest in resurrecting the case and challenging the ruling. Leon Fresco, an immigration attorney at Holland & Knight, and Melissa Lazarin, Senior Advisor for K-12 Policy at the Migration Policy Institute's National Center on Immigrant Integration Policy, join to discuss this high-stakes court battle.
