Immigration Reform 2018: What Would Barbara Jordan Say

Ruth Wasem, a clinical professor of public policy practice at the LBJ School and a leading immigration expert, will moderate a panel discussion on the historic US Commission on Immigration Reform, also referred to as the Jordan Commission, which was chaired by Congresswoman Jordan until her death in 1996. During the event, “E Pluribus Unum: Defending Barbara Jordan’s Legacy on Immigration,” panelists, Professors Ed Dorn and Victoria DeFrancesco Soto, will consider how Congresswoman Jordan might approach today’s immigration debate.
