Ultimately, they point toward immigration reform that is compassionate, sensible, and just.

For the last decade, Margaret Regan has reported on the escalating chaos along the Arizona-Mexico border, ground zero for immigration since 2000. Undocumented migrants cross into Arizona in overwhelming numbers, a state whose anti-immigrant laws are the most stringent in the nation. And Arizona has the highest number of migrant deaths. Fourteen-year-old Josseline, a young girl from El Salvador who was left to die alone on the migrant trail, was just one of thousands to perish in its deserts and mountains.

The solution isn't a wall. In this groundbreaking book, Buffett outlines a realistic, effective, and bi-partisan approach to fighting cartels, strengthening our national security, and tackling the roots of the chaos below the border.

Dopo un lungo periodo in cui l'Europa era principalmente un continente di emigrazione, negli ultimi decenni la tendenza si è invertita e sono sempre di più i cittadini di altri continenti che cercano di raggiungere l'Europa per i motivi più diversi.
