Description
IOP Pritzker Fellow Katie Tobin on "The U.S. Border & the Intersection Between Our Foreign & Domestic Policies"
THIS SEMINAR IS OPEN TO CURRENT UCHICAGO STUDENTS ONLY
Wednesday, October 23
12:30-1:45pm
Even for those of us working on the foreign policy side of the issue, the border cannot be ignored. While in the White House, I woke up every single morning to the border numbers in my inbox and spent the majority of the day working with a small interagency team to advance common-sense solutions to ease pressure there. With Congress unwilling to act, we were forced to get creative with the outdated tools we had at home and rely more on solutions in the region. This session will look at how foreign policy and domestic policy strategy on migration are inextricably tied. We will also discuss how the election results will impact our policies at home and abroad on this issue.
Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only. Seating in the IOP Living Room is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
