Local Responses to the U.S. Immigration Crisis
Hightstown, NJ, Hazelton, PA, New Haven, CT, Morristown, NJ, Suffolk County
and others...
HOW ARE TOWNS and municipalities responding to the immigration crisis? What
are the effects on our communities?
Join us for a conversation and debate.
As immigration reform hangs in the balance in Washington, D.C., city and
local governments around the country continue to take immigration matters
into their own hands. What are the effects of these local responses, such
as the "no-questions-asked" policy on immigration status in Hightstown, NJ
or the law prohibiting landlords from renting to undocumented immigrants in
Hazelton, PA?
