Migrants Wait In Mexican Border Encampments To Enter The U.S.

MATAMOROS, MEXICO - DECEMBER 2: Haitian immigrant Bergeline, now in Florida speaks to her husband Peterson, currently stuck at a migrant camp on December 2, 2022 in Matamoros, Mexico. They had crossed the U.S. border together in December 2021, while she was more than 7 months pregnant, after traveling from Chile. She was allowed to stay to seek asylum in the U.S. while he was deported to Haiti. Now, he's trying to return to rejoin her and their daughter. Thousands of immigrants have been waiting in Mexico to see if Title 42, a U.S. public health order used to expel migrants seeking asylum, is lifted on December 21, as ordered by a federal judge. U.S. border officials predict a migrant surge at the border if the pandemic-era regulation is removed. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
