Big wall, big gate: Thune discusses immigration proposals

U.S. Senate Photographic Studio/U.S. Senate Photographic Studio

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

U.S. Sen. John Thune says President Biden has hung out the welcome sign at the southern border. But what's really pushing people north? And how should we approach the walls and gates we place at the border?

Lori Walsh talks with the senator about immigration policy, the end of pandemic-era strategies and immigration reform-in-progress.
