All this week, the Cato Daily Podcast (subscribe!) has tackled the myths, errors, and underappreciated elements of immigration policy. President Donald Trump has made a massive reduction in legal immigration a centerpiece of his second year in office, and the sales pitch he’s made on behalf of that plan hinges on a number of false or misleading claims about the costs and benefits of immigration. In case you missed them, here are my discussions with Alex Nowrasteh, David Bier, and Matthew Feeney:

• Puncturing Persistent Myths about Immigrant Crime
• Trump Immigration Plan Would Dramatically Reduce Legal Immigration
• The New and Old Tech of Border Surveillance
• The Vast Powers of Customs and Border Protection
• Fear of Terrorism Drives Anti-Immigrant Push

And, not to be left out, Jim Harper discussed his recent paper on new national ID systems including E-Verify, the deeply flawed employment verification system aimed at keeping undocumented immigrants from working in the United States.

Here’s more of Cato’s work on immigration.
