"The question we should all ask is whether President Donald Trump’s threat of imposing scaled tariffs on Mexico will go the way he plans — including shutting down the border," says Gladys McCormick, Jay and Debe Moskowitz Endowed Chair in Mexico-U.S. Relations. Her article, "A dangerous sanction spectacle," was published in Newsday. "Sanctions as political spectacle are the height of irresponsibility," she says. "They set aside the needs of Americans, not to mention our neighbors to the north and south, who will suffer the effects of such shortsighted policies." 06/04/19
