* CMS Dialogue in NYCMS Dialogue in NY

Time: 2:00 pm

The Center for Migration Studies (CMS) is hosting a dialogue on control of the US-Mexico border. Speakers will include Fernando Garcia, Executive Director of the Border Network for Human Rights, a community organizing agency based in El Paso, Texas; Edward Alden, the Bernard L. Schwartz Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations; and a representative from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The meeting will explore several questions. What does it mean that Border Patrol apprehensions, the traditional metric used to measure control of the border, have fallen to levels not experienced since the early 1970s? Has the US reached a tipping point in securing the border? What metrics – beyond apprehensions – should DHS use to measure effective control of the border? How do local residents view the security of their communities? Donald Kerwin, CMS Executive Director, will moderate the discussion. The event will take place on February 1, 2012 from 2pm to 4pm at CMS Headquarters on 27 Carmine Street (near Bleecker and 6th Ave) in New York. Space is limited. To register for the event, please contact Rachel Reyes at cms@cmsny.org.
