About this episode
Since taking office for a second term, illegal border crossings have dropped to record lows under President Donald Trump. However, his mass deportation policies are facing criticism, as detractors argue that his administration is not solely targeting illegal immigrants with criminal records, and the crackdown could adversely affect industries that rely on migrant workers. In response, there is a bipartisan push to allow certain illegal immigrants who have lived and worked in the country since before 2021 to remain in the country. Florida Republican Congresswoman Maria Salazar spearheaded the Dignity Act and joins the Rundown to discuss her efforts. For decades, we've seen headlines about honeybee colony collapses plaguing beekeepers. Now the headlines are back, as honeybees are dying in record numbers. With more than a third of our food crops dependent on these vital pollinators, there is concern that these collapses could have wide-sweeping financial impacts for Americans. Ryan Burris, president of the California State Beekeepers Association and a third-generation beekeeper, joins the podcast to explain why so many bees are dying and why he is advocating for stronger government support in providing farmers with the tools to fight evolving threats to the nation’s food system. Plus, commentary from FOX News Legal Analyst Gregg Jarrett. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
