Tales of the Mexican Border

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Joe Miller reports on life on the Texas-Mexico border as the first televised debates for the US presidential candidates take place and cross-border trade once again takes the spotlight. Joe hears from the mayors of Laredo and McAllen, two Texas cities where the twin issues of trade and migration dominate the discourse... and hears about an under-reported humanitarian crisis.
