Mexicans Cross Border, Help U.S. Economy



Mexican shoppers with fists full of cash and long Christmas lists are pouring across the border into hotels, restaurants and shopping malls here, providing an economic boost in a downward spiraling economy. "It's extremely vital to make sure we do everything we can do to accommodate them at this time," said George Bon, national sales manager for the Radisson Suites Tucson. "The bottom line is, we can't afford to lose them." Mexican visitors spend more than $300 million a year in the Tucson metropolitan area, according to a study in 2002 by the Economic and Business Research Program at the University of Arizona.
