(NYT44) OXNARD, Calif. -- Feb. 22, 2005 -- LATAM-MIGRANTS -- Alberto Ruiz Flores, mayor of Valparaiso, Mexico met with the Las Cruces and Lobatos clubs of Zacatecan immigrants to urge them to continue sending money home to help their fellow citizens in Oxnard, Calif., in December. For Flores, politics does not stop at the United States border. The same is true across Mexico, the Caribbean and Latin America, where more and more officials like him answer to cross-border constituencies made up of the people at home who cast ballots and the ones abroad who pull the purse strings. Today more than ever, the remittances sent home by immigrant workers, both legal and illegal, are translating into political clout, and their communities in the United States, better organized and more vocal than before, have become social and political forces too important to ignore.
