About this listen

When it comes to immigration in the U.S., the news is constant and can be hard to process. Under President Trump, the rules and norms around immigration are rapidly changing.

On Status Pending, a podcast from WUWM 89.7 FM - Milwaukee's NPR, we provide context for how immigration has shaped Wisconsin and the nation. And we explore how people are navigating this changing immigration landscape.
