Our Nation’s Broken Immigration System: What’s the Problem?
In this session we will dive into immigration policy, where reform is desperately needed but hasn’t happened in decades despite efforts by multiple Administrations and Congress. We will explore the political debates on this issue over the past two decades and look into why Congress hasn’t been able to make progress on this issue despite multiple attempts. Holly will be joined by Barry Jackson, a strategist at the intersection of policy, politics, and communications who previously served as Chief of Staff to Speaker John Boehner and Director of the Office of Strategic Initiatives in the White House.
Holly will be joined virtually by Barry Jackson, former Chief of Staff to Speaker John Boehner and Director of the Office of Strategic Initiatives at the White House.
