Did you know that:
Mexico is the United States' second most
important trading partner
Mexican immigrants is the largest immigrant group in the US |

I’ve loved hearing real stories about
immigration and learning from this side of the border rather
than the United States. By coming here I’ve learned a lot about
the relationship between the U.S. and Mexico and why people
emigrate, whereas before I just heard people’s opinions on TV
and in the newspapers.
