For a time, Texas thrived under Mexican rule, with a diverse population and a flourishing economy.…

    The issues with undocumented immigrants, excluding the burden on public health, are both politically and socially enthused. While politics played a significant role in deciding how undocumented immigrants are managed once they enter the United States, some individuals in society have become judgmental and developed behaviors that are detrimental to the progress of undocumented immigrants being granted opportunities to advance or seek medical care.
