Dr. Demetrios Papademetriou joins us for analysis of the recession’s  broader implications on America’s immigrants. He is President of Migration Policy Institute, which is a Washington-based non-partisan think tank dedicated exclusively to the study of international migration. The institute recently released a report that examines the effects of the current economic crisis on immigrant flow to America and how those changes might continue to affect the U.S. economy.
