The plight of illegal Mexican immigrants in Brownsville Texas

Issued on:

There is a large illegal immigrant population from Mexico in Brownsville, Texas; a town on the border with Matamoros, Mexico. Some came over as children and were educated in American schools. U.S. President Barack Obama passed a bill in August that would give a deferral to those without papers who are pursuing higher education in the United States. RFI spoke to Arturo Guerra, a student working on his Masters in Business Administration, and who was on the verge of being deported.
