Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
The 1986 immigration reform effort has, by all accounts, been a
failure. As immigration and border security reform legislation is
passed in the House and the Senate, and new proposals are on the
table, the failures of 1986 must be identified to be avoided. We
must ask whether the loopholes that provided sanctuary to
terrorists, criminals, and perpetrators of fraud are still on the
table or - twenty years later - have we learned from those
mistakes. Join us as we engage Assistant Secretary Stewart A. Baker
in discussion about the flaws in immigration enforcement provisions
authored by Congress and what can be done to rectify and strengthen
them.
