When the Trump-era “Remain in Mexico” policy was enacted the first time around in 2019, Tijuana, Mexico, became a place of waiting. Migrant shelters were at capacity as asylum seekers from around the world settled in for the duration of their immigration court cases unfolding in the U.

As deportations continue, a new federal shelter was set up in Tijuana to provide a safe space and support. It is one of nine reception centers along the border as part of the “Mexico Embraces You” initiative.

Tijuana Mayor Ismael Burgueño Ruiz says he will not lift an emergency declaration he made last month as a way to prepare for mass deportations from the United States.

Migrant shelters in Tijuana — located across the border from San Diego, California — are bracing for a possible surge in the influx of migrants should US President Donald Trump carry out his mass deportation plan.

Jose Luis Perez Canchola warned that the city was not prepared for President Trump’s plan for mass deportations and the cancellation of asylum appointments.

President Trump took action to close the nation’s southern border and terminate a widely used app. Many migrants expressed despair, and some moved to cross the border anyway.

Dozens of migrants wait in Tijuana for information regarding their migration appointments as US President Donald Trump ends the use of a border app called CBP One, which has allowed people to legally enter the United States to work.

The president moved quickly to cancel the CBP One app, which allowed migrants to schedule appointments to gain entry into the United States, turning away potentially tens of thousands of migrants.

Naser Zazai, 29, had planned to reunite with his mother and brother in the United States this week after fleeing Afghanistan, where he says he was threatened and attacked because his brother had once worked for the U.

Migrants in Mexico who were hoping to come to the U.S. are adjusting to a new and uncertain reality after President Donald Trump began cracking down on border security.

The Trump administration has ended use of the border app called CBP One that allowed nearly 1 million people to legally enter the United States.

As President Donald Trump cracks down on immigration, lawmakers in some Democratic-led states are proposing new ways to resist his efforts.
