You have an article from Newsmax and the ranting of a Mexican politician to an audience of Mexican journalists, and I have a document from the US government.

Distrito Federal— Diputados federales y senadores de México y grupos civiles estadunidenses protestaron y condenaron ayer la aprobación de la Ley de Identificación Real HR 418 por parte de la Cámara de Representantes de Estados Unidos, porque “no contribuye al mejoramiento de la relación bilateral ni a la solución del problema migratorio pero sí viola los principios básicos que hicieron de esa nación la más poderosa del mundo”.
El priísta Carlos Jiménez Macías consideró que el gobierno de México debe pronunciarse clara y contundentemente en contra de esta propuesta, porque “permanecer en silencio o con un discurso suave frente lo que pasa será un mal precedente y facilitaría que Estados Unidos abuse”.

--- Now they're condemning us??? The corrupt government that is the reason for the mass exodus of it's citizens out of their own country? We should condemn them.
As I recall you have both business and family interests in Mexico.
Your interest in the immigration issues is apparently only to use them to influence internal reforms in Mexico.
That's fine, I doubt that many would disagree with you about the reforms you want, but most of us are more concerned about the needs and problems in America than micromanaging Mexico's internal affairs.
Both the federal government and the states enter into treaties with Mexico to resolve any conflicts we have with them. That's the way it should be handled if it's any of our business.
