Here are links to a couple of the news stories that have been written about the new non-profit Mexicans and Americans Thinking Together and its engaging website MATT.org.

MATT.org will be a place for Mexicans and Americans to come together to discuss major issues facing our two countries. The site allows MATT to poll its members about these issues and will provide members with a forum for sharing ideas and building on these ideas.
