We’ve been following the story of the Central American migrants who had been making their way to the US border. Trump described them as a “caravan.” Today, The World’s Jasmine Garsd profiles one of the migrants who managed to get into the US and ask for asylum. Then we talk to the former INS commissioner under Bill Clinton, Doris Meissner, about our story. She addresses criticism that immigration policy she helped create paved the way for Trump’s current policies.
