Texas Standard For June 20, 2018
How much longer? If there’s growing bipartisan opposition to the policy of separating families at the border, why isn’t congress stepping in? Today on the Standard, Democratic Congressman Vicente Gonzalez of McAllen joins us to talk about gridlock in Washington and heartbreak on the border. And: Fears of an all-out trade war with China are rising. How it might play out in our own backyard. Also: How do you spell dynasty? T-E-X-A-S. A Lone Star sweep of the national spelling championships gets people wondering what’s in the water? We’ll find out. Plus: 50 years after the landmark documentary, “Hunger in America” turned a spotlight on San Antonio, we’ll explore its lasting impact. All of that and so much more today on the Texas Standard:
