Migrant troubles in Mexico

Washington Times – by Mark Meckler

A new survey conducted by The Washington Post and Mexico’s Reforma newspaper shows that Mexicans are sick and tired of migrants traveling through their nation in an attempt to get to the United States. As people from Central America flood their nation, more than 6-in-10 Mexicans complain these migrants are stealing jobs and benefits from Mexicans. A majority wants to deport them. 

As new U.S. policies have forced more asylum seekers to stay on the south side of our border as they wait for incredibly backlogged hearings, northern Mexico is indefinitely full of caravans of people sleeping in public spaces, and hoping for handouts of food and clothing.

President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador will give these migrants work permits, but did not specify who was going to actually take care of their other needs.  This angered the governors of Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas, who blamed the administration for not providing enough resources. They even signed a public statement saying they no longer could offer resources to the overwhelmed regions.

“The number [of migrants] that the federal government is talking about is impossible for us to deal with,” said the governor of Coahuila, Miguel Angel Riquelme Solís.

Seems like the ruling elite of both countries are not willing to do as the people desire: to “secure our borders.”
