Growing numbers of undocumented migrants crossing the Mexico-U.S. border have raised a political firestorm in the United States, with some – particularly Republicans – calling the situation a “crisis.” Polling suggests that handling migration may be a weak spot in President Biden’s otherwise popular agenda. What are the numbers when it comes to undocumented crossings at our southern border? How is Biden’s approach different from Trump’s? Why is immigration reform so difficult in the United States? This episode has two guests. The first is Dr. Tony Payan, the Francoise and Edward Djerejian Fellow for Mexico Studies and Director of the Center for the United States and Mexico at the Baker Institute. The second is Ms. Pamela Lizette Cruz. She is a Research Analyst at the Center. Their work on U.S.-Mexican border issues and immigration can be found on the Baker Institute website.

On August 3, a 21 year old man shot and killed 22 people at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.  After his arrest, he reportedly told investigators that his goal was “to kill as many Mexicans as possible” unquote.   There is also evidence, from social media and elsewhere, that the shooter was motivated by hatred of immigration, especially by Mexicans.    What does this shooting tell us about the current national debate over immigration?    What role has divisive rhetoric – from the President on down – played in encouraging violence?   And how does another issue – gun control – factor into our debate about the tragedy in El Paso? Our guest for this episode is Dr. Tony Payan, the Francoise and Edward Djerejian Fellow for Mexico Studies and Director of the Center for the United States and Mexico here at the Baker Institute. He is one of our country’s leading experts on the Mexico-US relationship.  He was also, for many years, a resident of El Paso.
