AGUA PRIETA, Mexico – Its goal is audacious: to build up the Mexican working class and provide them with a comfortable life in their home country. For more than 30 years, Rancho Feliz has led with that goal in mind.
For decades, the town of Agua Prieta served as the final stop before the U.S. border for migrants on their journey to the U.S. or seeking employment in maquiladoras, or foreign-owned factories. Now, strict immigration crackdowns have resulted in a drastic decrease in border encounters.
