The real reasons why immigration stays broken, no matter who is president

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

The immigration system in the United States has a lot of serious problems. While immigration was a constant focus during the Trump administration, the problems in the system predate that administration, and for the most part they still exist today. Why is immigration reform so hard to accomplish in America? What are the key issues everyone agrees on, and why don't they get fixed? And what can the country do right now to address the biggest problems with our immigration system? Sarah Paoletti, Practice Professor of Law and Director of the Transnational Legal Clinic at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School talks on the podcast about the biggest holes in American immigration and why the system tends to stay broken.
