KWTX.com : A proposal in the U-S Congress to legalize millions of undocumented immigrants in the U.s. could hurt Mexico's economy.

They argue that Mexicans with permission to work in the United States will want to bring their families north to live with them.

That would eliminate the main reason they send money home.

That would hurt Mexican businesses that have come to depend on the money sent down from the United States.
