Description
Check out this video to watch the The Swinging Pendulum of Discretion.
Political party dominance in the White House or Congress doesn't resolve immigration deadlock. Without legal reforms, immigration policies fluctuate with discretionary changes, perpetuating polarization.
The World Issues Forum series is free and open to the public. Talks are held at 12:00pm in Fairhaven College Auditorium, on the top floor of the Fairhaven College main building to the rear (east) side. If you enter from the west entrance (halfway between the second and third floor facing parking lot 12A), take the half-flight of stairs to the left and continue to east side of the building from there. You'll see the door to the auditorium a little to your left.
Join us at WWU or online on Zoom!
World Issues Forum updates are available online.
