Facing The Future: The Vital Role of Immigration

This week on Facing the Future, we talk with Richard Jackson, president of the Global Aging Institute, about his new paper, “The Vital Role of Immigration in an Aging America.” The paper explains that even as immigration to the United States has been declining, its importance to the nation’s demographic and economic growth has been increasing. Then we have a follow-up conversation with two immigration activists who come at it from different perspectives.
