'I'm being punished for doing it the correct way.' Migrants who waited in Mexico for their turn to seek asylum are finding themselves banned by Trump administration rules.
Julio Lopez, a Salvadoran man who wants to seek asylum in the United States with his family, speaks with his wife inside their tent at a migrant shelter in Tijuana with his 5-year-old son by his side in Tijuana, Mexico, Thursday, Sept. 26, 2019. He asked that their faces not be shown.
The cutoff date is July 16. That means Lopez and his family would have escaped the restrictions had they crossed illegally when they arrived in early July. Because they waited, they will likely be turned away. It is difficult to know how many people fall into that category, but the groups estimate that 26,000 people are on waiting lists in Mexican border cities to make an initial claim for U.S. asylum. The Associated PressLopez, 42, who abandoned his business repairing mobile phones in El Salvador’s capital, never considered crossing illegally. He took a number in line that he figures is about two months from being called.
The other is the policy that took effect Sept. 12 to deny asylum to anyone who reached the U.S. after traveling through another country and failing to seek asylum there.

Girl Ultra Is Making 'the R&B Album Mexico Has Never Had'At age 17, Mariana de Miguel told her parents she was going to pursue music full-time. She started a band fresh out of high school, then found her footing in Mexico’s R&B scene, embryonic at the time. “My main goal with this genre and what I’m doing is to open up the path for other artists to really create the unseen,” she says, sitting atop a yellow satin cloth at Maria Hernandez Park in Brooklyn. She’s processing the past few years out loud, the night before her NYC tour stop at the Knitting Factory.
