Worth paying attention to what Cuellar has to say here. In 2019 many national observers (including me) thought he was out of touch with his constituents, but the 2020 results tended to indicate the opposite.https://t.co/v4gb6aiEwG

Amplified by the administration's "not now, don't come now"

"It is hard and it will take time," Alejandro Mayorkas says of unwinding Trump's immigration agenda.

Mayorkas cites Trump dismantling program that allowed minors to apply for protection in Central America (CAMS), cutting State Department aid to Central America. "It takes time to rebuild an entire system."

Mayorkas says DHS is now processing families placed into MPP at three border entries. The administration is now processing up to 100 migrants a day at one of those ports at Brownsville/Matamoros.

"They need to wait. It takes time to rebuild the system from scratch. If they come, if families come, if single adults come, we are obligated to...return them," under Trump-era Title 42 rule that rapidly expels migrants at the border.

"If in fact they seek to reunite here in the United States we will explore lawful pathways for them" to come to the U.S., Mayorkas says of parents separated from children under Trump's zero tolerance policy. "Explore" would seem to be a key word here.
