A federal judge blocked President Biden’s new policy that would make it tougher to apply for asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border. Krish O’Mara Vignarajah, president of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, joins us.
And, there’s an ongoing, deadly heat wave in Texas, and the state approved a 50% price increase on water bottles. Paul Flahive, accountability reporter for Texas Public Radio, joins us to discuss the danger of price gouging.
Then, we talk with Miriah Nunnaley, director of the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless, about the care the coalition provides to the state’s unhoused population. Among those receiving help is Ed Clair, a man who lived on the street throughout the winter and had to have his feet amputated after they froze in the cold weather.
