We continue our series on New Hampshire immigration by looking at the proposed refugee moratorium in Manchester. The moratorium would temporarily stop the city of Manchester from accepting new refugees. Meanwhile a recent bill in the statehouse would allow communities throughout the state to establish moratoria. The supporters claim that a moratorium will allow the state to better serve the current refugees, but the bill leaves some wondering if closing the doors to refugees is the best answer.
Guests:
George Bruno: an attorney specializing in immigration law and former U.S. Ambassador to Belize.
Ted Gatsas: Republican Mayor of Manchester.
We'll also hear from...
Mukhtar Idhow: Director of the Organization of Refugee and Immigrant Success, a nonprofit organization in Manchester.
