Description

WOLA·s president, Matt Clausen, shares what he saw and heard during a recent delegation to the U.S.-Mexico border at El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. Family migration increased 1,500% there this year, and the "Remain in Mexico" program has been implemented mercilessly amid sharply rising violent crime rates in Juárez. Matt found a strong community, including many tireless volunteers, advocates, journalists, and shelter personnel, dealing with a dire situation. He shares his impressions and analysis.
