U.S.-Mexico border for jobs in America has a new facet - forged documents for
the illegal immigrants. That's what a group of area citizens concerned about
border issues were told during their monthly meeting at the U.S. Border
Patrol station in Naco. The meetings only last an hour but they provide a
forum for exchange of information between agents guarding the border and
citizens who want to stay abreast of activities in their backyard.
