Republican Mayor Douglas Nicholls says 1,700 migrants have been released into his town of Yuma, Arizona, all of whom were tested for COVID-19 by local non-profits and placed into shelters.

Host Peter O'Dowd talks to Nicholls about the situation there and how it differs from reports from the Texas border.
