(KGTV) It has been more than a year since the U.S.-Mexico border closed to tourists. Businesses that rely on the foot traffic from Mexico are now awaiting for July 21 which is the day where the Department of Homeland Security decides to either keep the border closed or reopen.
For business owners in San Ysidro, it has been a never-ending roller coaster as they wait to see if and when they will see their clientele from across the border. A lot of us we are not going to survive if we don t get any help to be honest. Those are the concerns of Olivia Campos, the owner of Carolin Shoes. Campos has spent over 20 years in the retail industry.
