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.

Mexican gov't offers citizens help with sanctions law

In an interview on Telemundo Wednesday, a spokesman for the Mexican consulate in Tucson assured Mexicans working here that the consulate will help them with difficulties they encounter as a result of Arizona's new employer sanctions law.

Alejandro Ramos Cardoso told viewers the consulate will provide the services of several lawyers, experts in immigration and employment law, to advise Mexican citizens affected by the state law.

Ramos said Mexican citizens working in Tucson without legal work papers are frightened by the law. It requires employers to make sure an employee has the legal right to work in the United States.

And well they should be afraid! They violated the sovereignty of this great nation by entering illegally and compounded that by working without papers or with forged documents. Could you imagine what the Mexican government would do if, let's say, the Guatemalan government decided to intervene on behalf of it's citizens illegally in Mexico and try to fight for their rights in court? -mm
