What's Happening at the Center
Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter (and Center Fellow) Jerry Kammer discussed his new book, "Losing Control", with The Atlantic's David Frum. The conversation is available here ([link removed]) .

Kammer's book combines on-the-ground-reporting and historical narrative to shed light on the peculiar left-right coalition of immigrant-rights groups, ethnic activists, business interests, and civil libertarians that thwarted the promises of the immigration reform law enacted by Congress in 1986 – specifically, by undermining efforts to turn off the magnet of jobs that attracts illegal immigration. "Losing Control" also shows what it will take to repair the system so that it works in the broad national interest.

The paperback version ([link removed]) of the book is available for $13.49. Today is the last day to purchase the electronic version ([link removed]) at an introductory price of $1.99.

The Texas Covid Crisis: Revamp Trump's emergency border closure and pull data for policy-making — right now ([link removed])
By Todd Bensman
The refusal to acknowledge that some percentage of the Texas Covid-19 hospitalizations, likely a significant one, comes from an ongoing influx of seriously ill patients who caught the virus in Covid-exploding Mexico and are legally and illegally crossing the border to flee that country's completely overrun health system presents a danger to life that is more real than any imagined political offense by stating that Mexico is a source.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) have introduced the "No Bailouts for Illegal Aliens Act", designed to prevent pandemic relief funds from being awarded to illegal aliens. As lawmakers consider new payouts to help Americans get through the fall, they should make sure to include such safeguards in future bills.


DHS/DOJ Propose Redefining What Constitutes a 'Frivolous' Asylum Application ([link removed])
By Andrew Arthur
Fixing the definition of what constitutes a "frivolous" asylum claim is necessary because aliens currently file such applications solely to obtain work authorization, to be placed into removal proceedings so they can apply for 42B cancellation, or simply to extend their unauthorized stay in the United States — all without threat of sanctions. Such worthless asylum applications have flooded USCIS and the immigration courts.

DHS and DOJ Propose Rule Barring Asylum to Curb Disease Spread ([link removed])
By Andrew Arthur
On Thursday, the Executive Office for Immigration Review in the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security issued proposed changes to the regulations governing asylum. These changes would make clear that asylum officers and immigration judges could consider, on an emergency basis, specific public health concerns in assessing whether aliens claiming fear of persecution or torture pose a danger to the national security of the United States.
