Episode: 00267 Released on May 19, 2025 Description: In this special Leapodcasts Deep Dive, host Jason Elder moderates a timely and thought-provoking panel featuring Mindy Duong, Noah Fritz, and Deb Piehl, centered on the IACA's brand-new Innovative Ideas Forum. This episode explores the origins of the initiative, outlines the submission and voting process, and examines the motions that could reshape how the association governs, grows, and communicates. Listeners will get the inside scoop on why this forum was created, how it aligns with IACA's ongoing bylaws revisions, and what's at stake with each submitted idea. From member engagement and motion thresholds to international representation and transparency, the panel debates the future of participatory governance in a global association.

Even more important: encourage your peers to vote, share the link, and help make this process a success. These motions impact the entire membership, and the future of the IACA depends on active participation. Whether you're new to the IACA or a longtime member, this episode offers a candid, constructive conversation on organizational evolution, and highlights the importance of creating space for member voices in shaping the future of our profession.

Today, we celebrate Constitution Day and the system of government we once had but no longer do. However, what we still have in place are sovereign states. Today I make the legal argument for states to deter the border invasion. We're joined by Jessica Vaughan of the Center for Immigration Studies, who proposes several innovative ideas for states to use their police powers to deter the invasion. She believes the key is to leverage criminal laws on employment, human trafficking, drugs, vagrancy, trespassing, and other relatively low-level crimes to threaten the illegal aliens with prison time but also offer them a ticket home to avoid that prison time. She also discusses the importance of enforcing employment and trafficking laws against labor brokers who staff businesses with illegal aliens, in addition to states clamping down on identity theft.
