(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump and members of his Cabinet have been tracking the caravan of migrants, calling it a threat to the U.S. since it started March 25 in the Mexican city of Tapachula, near the Guatemala border. Attorney General Jeff Sessions called the caravan “a deliberate attempt to undermine our laws and overwhelm our system,” pledging to send more immigration judges to the border to resolve cases if needed. Trump administration officials have railed against what they call “catch-and-release” policies that allow people requesting asylum to be released from custody into the U.S. while their claims make their way through the courts in a process that can last a year.)
