Four Solutions to the Family Border Crisis

 
Wed, Oct 10th 2018 @ 2:12 pm EDT  by  Jeremy Beck

A record number of migrants traveling with children have been apprehended at the border with a month to go in the fiscal year. Alfredo Corchado and Diane Solis of the Dallas Morning News report that the "renewed surge in Central American family migration is overwhelming private shelters and U.S. immigration holding centers."

Eric Olson of the Woodrow Wilson Center predicts that the surge will continue until the poor conditions in the sending countries improve. Without question, "extreme violence, desperate poverty, and ineffective governments" are powerful reasons to leave a country. Then there is the question of what determines a migrant's choice of destination. Why, for instance, choose the United States instead of Mexico where improved economic conditions have slowed out-migration? Central Americans pass through Mexico on their way to the United States. Answers to that question include reuniting with separated family members who have resettled in the U.S., the value of the dollar over the peso, and the probability of reaching the interior and finding a job (migrants from El Salvadore, Honduras and Guatemala overwhelmingly cite work as a top reason for coming to the U.S.).
