CHILDREN CROSSING THE BORDER

Since the year 2000, many children have been coming to the United States with their parents because the U.S. made it very difficult for people to return home at the end of the "season" to be with their wives and children. In the photos above, see (reading across):

1. Sr. Cortez-Rivera with migrant child in Nogales, Sonora IN 2007
2. Salvadoran woman wih her two children crossing in Texas in 2019
3. Mother and child doing paperwork in Naco, Arizona IN 2009
4. Stretcher used to carry a dying woman in Southern Arizona IN 2004.
The phenomenon of children crossing the border is not new--just more horrific because of what they find when they get here.
