Mexican President Felipe Calderón will visit Sacramento on Wednesday to meet with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and state lawmakers, his first such appearance since taking office in December 2006.
Besides attending a private lunch hosted by Schwarzenegger and first lady Maria Shriver, Calderón will visit privately with Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez, D-Los Angeles, and address a joint session of the Legislature.
The luncheon for Calderón, who will be accompanied by his wife, Margarita Zavala, will be held at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel.
Schwarzenegger met with Calderón in November 2006, fresh off a re-election victory in which he captured 40 percent of the Latino vote in California. During that trip, Schwarzenegger called a planned $1.2 billion, 700-mile fence along the U.S.-Mexico border "an incomplete way of solving the problem" of illegal immigration and said a guest-worker program would be beneficial.
Then-Mexican President Vicente Fox spoke to the Legislature in May 2006, saying, "Mexico wants to be part of the solution, not part of the problem."
Fox also met with Democratic lawmakers and Schwarzenegger, but some Republicans protested his appearance.
