Proposed changes to legal immigration here in the U.S. that would especially affect the poor. We’ll take a look at the possible impacts. And: President Trump has signed the largest VA budget ever. What the money is going towards and where it’s coming from. Also: We’ll head to Sonora, Texas where unprecedented flooding has damaged hundreds of homes. Plus: We’ll hear how Texas waterways when not causing the damage like in that city, can provide access to parts of the state that are otherwise off-limits.

All those stories and so much more today on the Texas Standard:
