Today, January 25, in according to the Washington’s new migration policy, the United States begin to return the first group of legal asylum seekers back to Mexico, Reuters reported.

"The U.S. government will return the first group of migrants seeking asylum in the United States to the Mexican border city of Tijuana on Friday," officials said.

The new policy provides returning of non-Mexican migrants who cross the U.S. southern border back to wait in Mexico while their asylum requests are processed in U.S. immigration courts.
In this way the US is trying to stop increasing number of families arriving mostly from Central America who say they fear returning to their home countries due to threats of violence.
