TUCSON, Ariz. — Jesus Poblete has been driving his cab around Tucson for the last ten years. But recently, many of his customers have been migrants.

Migrants have been staying in local hotels for the last few years for a couple days before heading on to their final destinations in the U.S.Poblete picks up many migrants at these hotels and then takes them to the airport. “I never used to get out, but I found the need because they ask me for help, and it’s not a crime to help someone," Poblete said.He says he always talks to the migrants to see how they are doing, and they share with him both sides of the border story.
