It is unclear whether the processing centers and other measures will do much to slow the tide of migrants fleeing from countries marred by political and economic strife.
In a call with reporters, three senior administration officials detailed the migration centers, as well as other steps the administration was taking.

Prospective migrants would be able to make an appointment on their phone to visit one of the centers, according to a fact sheet also released by the Department of Homeland Security. Administration officials have said without any other measures in place, they expect the number of migrants encountered at the southern border daily to rise to as much as 13,000 people a day.
