Stan Marek, CEO of MAREK, and Linda Lorelle, award winning journalist, discuss the essential role that immigrants play in the Texas economy and the current state of affairs of immigration politics in an interview with Jim Granato, Dean of the Hobby School of Public Affairs. Speakers discussed challenges associated with the U.S. immigration system including worker misclassification and the lack of a method for long-time unauthorized immigrants to earn legal status. They also emphasized the need for commonsense immigration reform that improves border security, updates the asylum system, legislates a permanent solution for DACA, and creates a method to ID and Tax unauthorized immigrants.
