Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the administration is in ongoing discussions with the Mexican government, which has played an outsized role in recent years in every U.S. program to limit or redirect migrants' access to the U.S.-Mexico border. He declined to provide specifics, citing sensitive bilateral talks.
In a visit planned last week, Mayorkas came to El Paso to receive operational briefings by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials at a time when the city is receiving record numbers of asylum-seeking migrants.to manage the flow of millions of migrants arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border by quickly expelling people to Mexico or countries of origin, including asylum seekers.
Hundreds of migrants crossed the Rio Grande to the U.S. in hopes of seeking asylum after arriving to Ciudad Juarez on Dec. 11, 2022. The migrants had been kidnapped by organized crime in the state of Durango in the weeks prior and were provided a state police escort into Ciudad Juarez. "What we're experiencing is a challenge of migration throughout the hemisphere," Mayorkas said."We've been speaking with our partners in a bilateral and multilateral context, because a regional challenge requires partnership and a regional solution."
Mayorkas met with El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser and El Paso County Judge Ricardo Samaniego during his two-day visit to the city, along with border agents and immigrant advocacy groups.
