Across the border, "a humanitarian crisis" is brewing
It's a message that welcomes Mexican compatriots driving or flying back to Mexico for holidays or to visit family and friends.

They aren't just empty words but part of the government embrace of its citizens abroad who remain connected — and financially committed — to the country.

At airports and border crossings, the returnees are given information on staying safe and reporting any government corruption they encounter.

But for those Mexicans unceremoniously returned home — those deported and dropped off by U.S. immigration in Mexican border towns such as Nogales, Tijuana and Juárez — there is no such welcome.
