I'd be interested in learning more about immigration policy and enforcement during the Obama years.

It seems like Obama's immigration legacy is complex, politically loaded, and difficult to talk about, especially in the wake of Trump. I wonder if it might be possible to get a more complete picture than the one I have now, which is "Obama inherited a massive apparatus from Bush, and oversaw a change that resulted in more deportations at the border and less in the interior of the country, as well as more deportations of Central Americans and less of Mexicans. Many of the Central Americans were asylum seekers, and their deportations were essentially death sentences."
