Mexico making caravan walk, not ride, to the US border — Central American migrants traveling with a caravan gather at the border wall, some sitting on top of it, look toward the U.S. from Mexico during a gathering of migrants living on both sides of the border, on the beach where the border wall ends in the ocean, in Tijuana, Mexico, Sunday, April 29, 2018.

They say they want to prepare them for the worst possible outcome. | (Hans-Maximo Musielik/AP)

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Wednesday that Mexico has taken significant steps to slow down the caravan of Central American migrants as it makes its way toward the southern U.S. border.

In a Fox News interview, Sanders said specifically that Mexico has helped make sure caravan members stay marching on their feet, and aren’t taking buses or other transportation.
