I have an outside-the-box solution for our southern border: build a small, self-contained city that straddles the border, in cooperation with Mexico, that has housing, health care, schools, and some light industry. People can stay there as long as they follow special laws created for that space, while they await the hearings on their immigration cases. Maybe they’ll never want to leave!

One of the candidates for California governor has a similar proposal for using all that empty land on the California-Mexico border.

That’s hopeful - I had no idea anyone else was thinking outside the box that way. Maybe I should write to my Congressional reps.
