that because typically u.s. policy for asylum is asylum wil be rejected if the government knows that these migrants have settled in another country before coming to the united states, so a lot of these migrants told me they've been living in chile since 2014, 2016 , years. when i asked them why did you come now, they all say the same thing. we felt now is the right time, now is the opportunity to come. it's absolutely trooper at people keep asking on twitter, how are people walking from haiti to del rio, there is a huge ocean, they been in chile for a long time now, and they'v been waiting. they just for whatever reason decided now is the time they want to try to come to the united states. from what they have been tellin us and what from what we have seen, they know once they cross the river, they can set foot here in the u.s., if they've go a child or pregnant wife, if they're a family, they will get released with a piece of paper and if they want to, they can disappear into the shadows, and a lot of them do.
