The U.S. government will expand humanitarian passage monthly for as many as 30,000 people from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti and Venezuela under a broad measure designed to grapple with historic migration from the Western Hemisphere, senior administration officials announced Thursday.
“Encounters at our southwest border have reached levels that we’ve not seen in decades, driven in large part by an unprecedented exodus of migrants from Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela,” the administration official said. Migrants wait at the Mexican side of the border in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua state, Mexico on Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2022. On Tuesday night, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection moved the access point for migrants arriving from Mexico border further east on Gate 15 of where Texas National Guard is stationed.
“Individuals who irregularly cross the Panama, Mexico, or U.S. border after the date of this announcement will be ineligible for the parole process and will be subject to expulsion to Mexico, which will accept returns of 30,000 individuals per month from these four countries who fail to use these new pathways.”
