The Immigration debacle with activist Marisol Marquez

Share

The GOP-led House of Representatives today withdrew an emergency spending measure to address the surge of young Central American migrants at the southern border. Does that mean they will go home without addressing the humanitarian crisis? They have one more day to decide before going on vacation.

While Washington was failing to address the situation, Tampa activist Marisol Marquez and her group Raices in Tampa were holding a demonstration in Ybor City tonight on behalf of the Cental American children. She talked with us about the crisis on the program.
