Peter Guzman on Immigration, Broadacres, and the Latino Workforce: A Conversation on Trust, Policy, and Progress
On today’s episode of The Middle Ground, Peter Guzman, President of the Latin Chamber of Commerce, returned to the studio for an in-depth conversation about the state of immigration in Nevada and across the country. Peter shared powerful insight into the economic and social impact of undocumented workers, particularly in industries like gaming and construction, and discussed the urgent need for comprehensive immigration reform. The conversation also tackled the emotional closure of Broadacres Swap Meet, a cultural cornerstone for Latino families, and what it symbolizes about shifting attitudes and economic pressures in Las Vegas. Peter emphasized the importance of trust between immigrant communities and law enforcement, especially in light of the recent 287(g) partnership between Metro and ICE. He called for more compassion, better communication, and real solutions that benefit both workers and businesses alike.
