In this episode of Observer Radio, staff writer Melissa del Bosque helps us get a grasp on what Central American immigrants seeking asylum experience in U.S. detention centers.

Congressman Beto O'Rourke joins us to discuss the HUMANE Act and other ways the U.S. might respond to the influx of Central American immigrants at the border.
