Will more border enforcement stop Enrique?
Now that "comprehensive immigration reform" is dead in Congress for the time being, observers expect border and interior (workplace) immigration enforcement to increase. But will more enforcement stem migration?
Los Angeles Times projects reporter SONIA NAZARIO thinks not: "[S]uch a powerful stream will only change if it is addressed at its source, if the economies of these countries that are sending large numbers of people to the United States improve. I talked to one kid in southern Mexico who had made 27 attempts to reach his mother in the United States, and he was getting ready to make attempt number 28. You come to believe that no number of border control guards is going to stop someone like that."
Someone like Enrique.
