Fox tours Washington’s farm country

“Mexican President Vicente Fox touched down in the heart of Washington farm country Wednesday, greeting Gov. Chris Gregoire with a kiss on the cheek before heading off to visit a Latino-owned fruit orchard in the nation’s leading apple-producing state.

Fox’s visit to the agriculture-rich Yakima Valley marked what is believed to be the first visit by a Mexican president to Washington. It is part of a three-state swing through the Western United States amid an extended national debate over immigration reform.”
