News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Three truck drivers were arrested while allegedly attempting to smuggle undocumented immigrants inside tractor-trailers in a series of busts over the weekend in El Paso, said a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Fifteen immigrants headed to cities such as Phoenix, Los Angeles and Chicago were found by agents with the Border Enforcement Security Task force. Agents had been doing surveillance at area truck stops. The task force includes ICE, the Border Patrol and the El Paso County Sheriff's Office. More information is expected to be released today.
