The crisis at the Southern Border has been a hot-button issue for news/talk stations in the U.S. since President Joe Biden was sworn-in nearly two years ago.
Next month, the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) will host its 15th annual “Hold Their Feet to the Fire” event from the rooftop terrace in Washington, D.C.
The event will feature dozens of talk radio stations from around the country broadcasting on Sept 21 & 22.
“F2F has spanned four presidents and become America’s largest annual gathering of talk hosts,” FAIR said in a statement. “This September marks its 15th anniversary coinciding with the most consequential midterm election of our lives.”
Organizers said the event is about “holding public officials accountable by voters who have been informed about immigration issues and activated by the vast reach and influence of talk radio.”
FAIR offers free room and board during the two days to radio broadcasters who do their show on-site. The organization told Barrett News Media that 70 radio stations would participate in this year’s event. They declined to state what stations would be represented.
“This is an opportunity for Washington elites to hear from the millions of listeners you represent,” FAIR said. That’s why we cover your travel expenses and hotel.”
