Join us for our series of special reports "Broken Borders." We take a look at schools on the border of the United States and Mexico. Each day school buses drive youngsters from a place called Lukeville on the Mexican border, to school in Ajo, Arizona. About a fifth of the 550 students may not be residents of the United States. What is the impact of this? Does anyone care? We have the story.

And for more on "Broken Borders,"Rep. Bob Menendez, D-New Jersey, chairman of the Democratic Caucus, talks to Lou about immigration reform that focuses on family unity, earned legalization, an enhanced temporary worker program, and strengthening national security.

Plus, Chairman of House Ways and Means Committee, Rep. Bill Thomas, R- California is our guest.
