We care about what happens in Mexico because one way or another our futures are tied. We are for a growing Mexican economy. not just because we feel compassion for the Mexican worker. but also because we know it is in the longterm interest of the American worker. If Mexico can create jobs and encourage its workers to live there rather than emigrate. often illegally. to the United States. then both countries will benefit. Mexico is a country where half of the popula ion is under 19. Who will employ them in the future? At its present growth rate. Mexico cannot. and border states such as California are already pushed to the breaking point by immigrants seeking work and a better way of life. If NAFTA fails. I fear that many will come here to our already crowded job market if they cannot find work in their country.
