Common Good News - Solutions on the US/Mexico Border

While it can seem that the issues facing asylum seekers, refugees, and immigrants are hopelessly stuck in a partisan political divide, the truth is that the answers are already being lived out by people on both sides of the border. Today we talk with Johana Bencomo, who, as a faith-based organizer and Las Cruces City Council Member, is part of those hope-filled solutions.

 

Johana Bencomo is Executive Director at New Mexico CAFé and City Council Member at City of Las Cruces.
