Immigration News, in context.
It feels like there’s a new, massive immigration policy change every week, if not every day.
The sheer volume of news — and the avalanche of takes that inevitably follow — makes it hard for readers to walk away feeling informed about how any one government policy actually changed, how it was before, who it affects and how, how the issue might play out, and the open questions that remain.
Our friends often tell us they wish they had a better grasp on these policies and their effects — whether it’s the ‘asylum ban,’ the public charge rule, the Flores settlement, the DACA and TPS litigation, or countless other recent developments — but they barely know where to start.
That’s where BORDER/LINES comes in.
Written by immigration beat reporters Gaby Del Valle and Felipe De La Hoz, this weekly newsletter is designed to help you make it through the thick of the week’s biggest immigration policy headlines — and to give you a real understanding of past and present context, plus the ability to follow the thread of these stories as they continue to develop.
If you sign up, you’ll get one email every Friday morning with a full breakdown of the most significant story of the week, top-to-bottom, including historical context, legal precedent, analysis, informed predictions, and key takeaways. We’ll also dig into important new stories that flew under the radar, and take a look at what to expect for the week ahead.
Our weekly dispatch is free. At some point down the line, we will add some premium content for subscribers who want to support our work.
For now, we hope you’ll subscribe and give us feedback, suggestions on what to cover, your take on the issues, and tips. Reach us at BorderLines.News@protonmail.ch.
