Most people know Donald Graham as the former publisher of the Washington Post. These days he is Chairman Emeritus of Graham Holdings, a conglomerate whose operations include online, print and local TV news, among many other sectors.

He is also Co-founder of TheDream.US, the nation’s largest college scholarship provider to undocumented students.

When the state of Texas recently announced a requirement for all public colleges and universities to identify undocumented students, I figured Graham would have some thoughts on the subject.

I was right.

He readily agreed to an interview which was conducted August 6th on Substack Live. This podcast is a recording of that interview.

It’s part of a weekly segment called “All Eyes on Texas”, highlighting issues at the forefront in the Lone Star state that often have national repercussions.

With the non-stop news generated by the Trump administration 2.0, it’s easy for important topics to get lost in the shuffle.

This one is too important to overlook, and after listening to this conversation, I think you’ll understand why.
