Nogales, AZ: Bus line offering tours of border..."It's been very informative," said Ruth McClung, a Tucson engineer who opposed U.S. Rep. Raúl Grijalva in the 2010 Congressional District 7 election. "It's always interesting to hear from people that live down here and do business down here." Feinman succeeded in maintaining his political neutrality as guide, but the tour was too heavy on residents trying to convince the participants the border region is safe and would be better with a presentation from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said Jennifer Leslie, Arizona director of Smart Girl Politics, a conservative women's movement...Tours are expected to take place about twice a month, and can also be scheduled on specific dates for groups of sufficient size. The tours cost $75 per person for the standard bus or $89 per person for a luxury touring van. Lunch is included. A portion of the proceeds go to the Santa Cruz Community Foundation and Humane Borders.
