SAN LUIS, Ariz. (AP) - It's only 4 a.m. but the border crossing in this southwest Arizona town is already jammed with cars and people inching northward to enter the United States.
The crowds are coming to work in the vast farm fields that stretch for miles around San Luis and nearby Yuma. But despite the numbers, farmers in the area say there just are not enough workers pouring across the border each morning.
Right now, early in the winter vegetable growing season, it's not a huge issue — the crews are mainly thinning the lettuce crop, setting up irrigation and running tractors.
