Las Cruces, NM – On Fronteras: A Changing America, the federal government takes a small step to make it easier for foreign students to study, and stay here.Millions of international students get an education in the U.S. and then take their knowledge and skills home. But experts say we should be doing more to keep them here.

Also, foreign-owned factories on the Mexican side of the border may make their owners wealthier, but some workers say they're being exploited. We hear maquiladora workers in their own words.
