A Tough Love Suggestion to End the Annual Caravan from Central America

For the past 10 years Pueblo Sin Fronteras has been coordinating the transit of a caravan of Central Americans through Mexico into the United States. Every year as many as 1,000 men, women and children from Honduras and El Salvador have been allowed to enter the U.S. claiming asylum. They ask for asylum claiming that they are escaping from gang violence in their home countries, and they are allowed to remain in the U.S. pending a review of their petition for asylum by an immigration judge. While a few are detained pending the judicial review, most are released and instead of returning for their court date begin living in the U.S. as illegal aliens. Democrats refer to them as undocumented workers.
