South Padre's New Bridge, Trump's Border Wall & Business with Mexico, Voting in the Valley, James Comey

May 9, 2017 Hershal Patel

This week, we follow up on a couple of items from our first episode. There's news on South Padre Island's second causeway, and after reviewing the results of Valley elections, we encourage all of our listeners to go the vote out! We also take a dive into Trumps border wall, and it's impact on illegal immigration and Mexican tourism to the Rio Grande Valley.

Here is a report (PDF) from the Center for Migration Studies that shows how overstaying on legal visas far outnumber illegal entries into the United States.

Here is McAllen's 2016 Crime Report and here is a link to McAllen's list of crime reports.
