Aside from the fact that it is to our longterm benefit for our neighbors to live in peace and prosperity. we suffer very serious and immediate consequences when a neighboring country like Mexico experiences a crisis of this magnitude. Mexicos political crisis means thousands more people crossing our border illegally to seek employment in the United States and adding substantially to our immigration problems. Mexicos political crisis means thousands fewer people crossing our border legally to shop in the United States and buy our goods and bolster the troubled economies of cities up and down the border. Mr.
