Chris Hayes: 本期节目讨论了特朗普和拜登政府在移民问题上的政策差异,以及这些政策对边境和合法移民的影响。讨论涵盖了特朗普政府的限制性移民政策,包括减少签证签发、对难民数量的削减、以及在边境问题上采取的具有争议性的措施,例如家庭分离政策和对寻求庇护者的限制。同时,节目也分析了拜登政府上任后所做的改变,以及在边境问题上仍然存在的挑战,例如第42条政策的实施和取消对边境过境人数的影响。此外,节目还探讨了国会在这方面的作用以及两党在移民问题上的分歧。 Aaron Reichlin-Melnick: 特朗普政府的移民政策以限制性为核心,旨在减少合法和非法移民数量。具体措施包括减少签证签发、降低难民数量、以及在边境采取严厉的措施,例如家庭分离政策和“零容忍”政策。这些政策虽然在短期内可能减少了边境过境人数,但并未从根本上解决问题,反而导致了其他问题,例如难民项目的破坏和对寻求庇护者的不公平待遇。拜登政府上任后,虽然取消了一些特朗普政府的政策,但由于资源限制和“第42条”政策的持续实施,边境问题仍然严峻。取消“第42条”后,边境过境人数构成发生了变化,减少了重复过境,但增加了家庭过境的比例。此外,与墨西哥的合作和新的移民政策也对边境局势产生了影响。长期来看,解决移民问题需要国会更新法律,并与墨西哥等国家加强合作。
