Migrants from all over the world who began a trek to the United States under then-President Joe Biden’s open-border policies are now heading back home or choosing not to try to come under President Donald Trump.
On his first day in office, Trump signed a series of executive orders bolstering border security and re-implementing first-term policies Biden scrapped such as “Remain in Mexico,” all of which led to dramatic decreases in illegal crossings.
As such, the changes in policies have discouraged migrants from departing for the U.S. while causing others who were enroute to turn around, as noted by Reuters in a video report published this week.
