Trump Immigration Policies Trap Migrants on Both Sides of Border
President Donald Trump's strict immigration policies have trapped migrants who fled their countries of origin only to be turned back by American authorities, Mother Jones reports.
Even before Trump assumed office, border patrol officials began turning away migrants seeking refugee status, saying, “Trump doesn't want you here.” Many were forced to return to areas like Reynosa, Mexico, where fighting between the Gulf and Zetas cartels has turned the migrants into resources.
