On today's Fallon Forum, we talk about the immigration reform rally this weekend in Des Moines. We also try to get a handle on the tragic increase in deaths among immigrants on the Texas border. In A New Beat on Learning, we talk about how the anti-tax crowd in the US Congress seems comfortable passing a new tax for at least one constituency, students struggling with college debt. We also talk about Tom Vilsack's views on the food stamp program and Congress' inability to approve a farm and food bill, and somebody, please, take that shovel out Terry Branstad's hand before he digs his hole any deeper on SpeedGate and Orascam.
