Over the past month, there has been a substantial growth in interest in this Substack newsletter. The number of people now getting it has doubled from about 400 to more than 800 people in just three months. This is really exciting and I want to say ‘thank you’ to all of the people who have sent kind messages or shared this work online recently. I’m passionate about making immigration news, policy, and research more accessible, so please know that the support is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for including the maps of the Mississippi and Rio Grande rivers. I think it's fascinating that we draw lines on a map and think that's where one state or country or culture begins and another ends. How much happier and safer a world it would be if we just forgot about the silly border lines drawn on paper and just opened our hearts to accept all migrants looking for a safe place to live and work!
