U.S. Border Patrol agents arrest a group of 43 Central American #migrants, including children, on a roadside in McAllen, Texas, during a predawn patrol in late September. The number of #asylum seekers has skyrocketed: In 2008, according to federal data, fewer than 5,000 people apprehended by border agents expressed fear of returning home, thereby triggering the asylum process. Ten years later, that number has soared to more than 97,000—a nearly 2,000% increase. The figure has doubled in the past two years alone, driven by the arrivals of #families and unaccompanied minors. Some #immigration-rights advocates explain this uptick by pointing at world events—environmental devastation, gang activity and political volatility in much of Central America. They say that the U.S., a nation founded by religious #refugees, is built on a proud tradition of sheltering those facing persecution and that we should make room for as many as we can, whatever the source of their fear. @ドナルド・トランプ and many of his supporters see things differently. They argue that our asylum laws are being exploited, that the migrants who file for refugee status are only pretending to flee oppression as a way to sneak into the country through a legal back door. The #Trump Administration is waging a policy war against asylum seekers. The political drama has fueled a deeper, more unsettling debate that gets to the heart of what kind of a country #America wants to be. Read more on TIME.com. Photograph by @jfpetersphoto for TIME
