On Thursday, members of the Mexican House of Representatives joined with their counterparts (collaborators?) from the U.S. House to demand immigration "reform", aka a massive amnesty for illegal aliens.

Then, on Friday they traveled to Chicago to meet with Mexican illegal alien Elvira Arellano, who's been holed up in a church in defiance of a deportation order.

The AP report on the incident is from Nathaniel Hernandez, and only one of the versions of the article I've seen includes the following intro:

European officials allow residents to travel freely between countries, so why can't those in the U.S. and Mexico do the same?

A delegation of Mexican congressman posed that question Friday while expressing their support for an undocumented Chicago mother who has openly defied a U.S. deportation order.

"The separation of families is something that is very painful in Mexico," Nicolas Morales, a member of Mexico's National Action Party, or PAN, said in Spanish. "Let's look at the example of Europe, and how all of Europe united and is now only one nation. That is not happening here.

"We want to ask the people of the United States to pay a little bit of attention ... to look at us as a neighbor, a neighbor who has never done any harm."

Yeah, except for the various wars and skirmishes, the explicit plot to send us people contrary to our laws, the continual meddling in our internal politics, the implicit threats, the failure to admit the sovereignty of our country... No harm at all!

The rest of the article is shared by others who've printed the story:

The Mexican officials traveled to Chicago after visiting Washington D.C. on Thursday and presenting members of the U.S. House of Representatives' Hispanic Caucus with a resolution passed by the Mexican Congress in November.

The resolution expresses support for Arellano and asks the U.S. Congress to suspend her deportation order. The document, which also calls for a moratorium on massive deportations, was drafted after Arrelano's son, Saul, visited Mexico's 500-member Chamber of Deputies to plead for help in lobbying Washington to stop his mother's deportation...

...The Mexican congressman also were joined by Dolores Huerta, a longtime activist who helped found the United Farm Workers Union along with Cesar Chavez. She asked that immigrant rights marches being planned around the country for April 29 be dedicated to Arellano and her son, Saul.

And, the AP, as usual, serves only as a transcription service:

[Arellano] defended her decision to defy a federal deportation order.

"We know we came to a country that doesn't belong to us," Arellano said Friday. "But we didn't come to harm anyone. We didn't come to kill or rob. We only came to this country with the hope of finding a better job, a better future for our families."

And, while this needs to be taken with a large grain of salt, Cuba's Finest News Source says:

Mexican legislators who travelled to Chicago to deal with the situation of the Mexican immigrant Elvira Arellano agreed with their US counterparts to create a negotiation commission on migration reform.

...The US congressman Luis Gutierrez committed himself with the Mexican representatives to intercede for Arellano and protect the people with no identity papers in the country, reflected press media.

The eight congressmen communique noted that the commission must be form in August at the very latest in which legislators from Central America and the Caribbean will also take part.

I'll try contacting those American (?) legislators who took part in this to try to get more information on whether that is actually true.
