The unreliable border policies of Latin American governments directly correlate to the cold-shoulder President Joe Biden’s administration has thus far given them.

One of the Biden administration’s first acts was to rescind the “Remain in Mexico” policy. This turned migrants away at the border, but allowed them to stay in Mexico to file their asylum claims. In February, the State Department suspended agreements with El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras that kept asylum-seekers in their home countries while their applications were reviewed.
