Migrants in Tijuana border camp plead with Biden for US entry
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A Joe Biden campaign flag is seen at a migrants camp, where asylum seekers wait for U.S. authorities to allow them to start their migration process outside the El Chaparral crossing port in Tijuana, Baja California state, Mexico, on March 21, 2021. President Biden's pledge of a more humane approach has sparked a new rush to the border, threatening to become a huge political liability. Republicans are accusing him of opening the country's doors to illegal border crossers and sparking a "crisis" on the U.S.-Mexico frontier, while migrants out of Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) program are stranded along the U.S.-Mexico border without knowing when or how they will be able to start their migratory process with U.S. authorities.
