Texas Matters: Border Wars And Trump

In the new book Border Wars: Inside Trump’s Assault on Immigration the authors New York Times journalists Julie Hirschfeld Davis and Michael D. Shear give us an understanding of recent U.S. immigration policy. We learn what is driving these policies and how well they are working.

Hirschfeld Davis spoke with Texas Matters about President Trump and his signature issue.
