One family
Of note to Utah lawmakers contemplating introducing more proposals to fight illegal immigration, possibly even sanctions against employers who hire undocumented workers—Arizona got a plea from lawmakers from Sonora, Mexico, where such laws have a direct and dire impact.The Tucson Citizen reports that Sonora cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools it will face as illegal Mexican workers are forced to return to their hometowns from the U.S. Mexican Rep. Leticia Amparano Gamez of Nogales questioned the stricter state laws:
How can they pass a law like this?
There is not one person living in Sonora who does not have a friend or relative working in Arizona. Mexico is not prepared for this, for the tremendous problems [if Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to Sonora]. [Arizonans and Mexicans] are one family, socially and economically.

Why hasn't Bush cracked down on Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderón for corruption? They must have embezzled and laundered more money to their Swiss bank accounts than Yasir Arafat (about $4 Billion)
Sounds like this is Mexico's problem, not ours.
Why does Mexico think that they some right to export their problems to the U.S.?
Many of the returning Mexicans were employed in the U.S. construction industry which means they should have no problem building more homes.
