Nick Gillespie interviews the Cato Institute’s Alex Nowrasteh and George Mason University’s Bryan Caplan

Update: David Bier, originally scheduled to join the Reason Speakeasy, can no longer attend. His Cato colleague, Alex Nowrasteh, the coauthor of Wretched Refuse?: The Political Economy of Immigration and Institutions, will replace him.

The Reason Speakeasy is a monthly, unscripted conversation with outspoken defenders of free thinking and heterodoxy in an age of intellectual conformity and groupthink. The event doubles as a live taping of The Reason Interview With Nick Gillespie, hosted by Reason Editor at Large Nick Gillespie.

This month’s guests are two of the nation’s most notable proponents of immigration liberalization, Alex Nowrasteh and Bryan Caplan, who will join Nick for a timely discussion about the state of U.S. immigration policy in 2025. They will discuss the implications of the incoming Trump administration’s immigration proposals, and make the libertarian case for why more immigration will make America great (again).

Alex Nowrasteh is the vice president for economic and social policy studies at the Cato Institute. He is the author of The Most Common Arguments against Immigration and Why They’re Wrong and coauthor of Wretched Refuse?: The Political Economy of Immigration and Institutions.

Bryan Caplan is a professor of economics at George Mason University and a New York Times bestselling author. His books include The Myth of the Rational Voter, Selfish Reasons To Have More Kids, The Case Against Education, and Open Borders. He is also the editor and chief writer for Bet On It on Substack.

The Reason Speakeasy will be hosted at Sovereign House, located at 185 E Broadway on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. (Please note the different location from past Reason Speakeasy gatherings.) Doors will open at 7 p.m., and the discussion with Bryan and Alex will begin at 7:30 p.m., followed by audience Q&A. Food and drinks will be served.
