Schedule sketched for Clinton visit


Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will arrive in Mexico Wednesday of this week.

She'll have a busy week.

As Mexico's drug violence reaches higher and higher levels, Clinton will arrive to speak not only about this but also trade and the economic situation.

During the 2008 presidential campaign, both Clinton and Obama highlighted the North American Free Trade Act, saying it needed to include better protections for U.S. workers.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and Attorney General Eric Holder also have visits scheduled to Mexico next month, and Obama is due in the country April 16.
