Life in a town with more Border Patrol agents than residents

The number of U.S. Border Patrol agents stood at over 1,700 in 1975, but today nearly 20,000 agents are on patrol as one of the largest and most well-funded enforcement agencies in the country. A new documentary called "Undeterred," sheds light on how the expansion has impacted one small Arizona community along the southern border. NewsHour Weekend's Ivette Feliciano has more.
