By Mark Krikorian
National Review, June 4, 2024
Excerpt: The White House has finally announced the long-awaited measure to respond to the border crisis (which President Biden himself caused).

Incentives Matter at the Border
By Jason Richwine
Excerpt: Policymakers could go much further to disincentivize illegal immigration by mandating nationwide E-Verify, restoring Remain in Mexico, tightening asylum eligibility rules, ending catch and release, and restricting parole. The policy levers are available, but, as of this moment, the political will is not.
