Tagged: children, Mexico, remittance

Mexico’s Central Bank reported Wednesday that it received nearly $24 billion in 2007, compared with $23.74 billion in 2006, after several years of double-digit increases.
The government cited the sluggish economy in the U.S. and increased vigilance by U.S. officials.
