“Just like on this side of the border where companies took advantage of workers who were not unionized, the Comité Fronterizo de Obrer@s (CFO-Border Committee of Women Workers) fights for the women maquiladora workers.

Women make up the majority of maquiladora workers. They travel from all parts of the country just to have the chance to work in these U.S.-sanctioned businesses.”
