Two groups of Central American migrants marched to the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana on Tuesday with a list of demands, with one group delivering an ultimatum to the Trump administration: either let them in the U.S. or pay them $50,000 each to go home, a report said.
Among other demands were that deportations be halted and that asylum seekers be processed faster and in greater numbers, the
San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
The first group of caravan members, that included about 100 migrants, arrived at the consulate around 11 a.m. Alfonso Guerreo Ulloa, an organizer from Honduras, said the $50,000 figure was chosen as a group.
It may seem like a lot of money to you, Ulloa told the paper. But it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras.
He said the money would allow the migrants to return home and start a small business...........
A lot of people are leaving because there is no solution here, said Douglas Matute, 38, of Tijuana. We thought they would let us in. But Trump sent the military instead of social workers.
