November 21, 2019 - Matamoros, Mexico : Asylum seekers from Mexico and Central America wash their clothes in the Rio Grande under the Gateway International Bridge which leads to Brownsville, Texas. Because of the Trump Administration's Migrant Protection Protocols, more popularly known as the "Remain in Mexico" policy, asylum seekers are barred from the safety of the US until their claims are accepted, a process that takes months, forcing migrant families to live in tents along the border, or give up and return home to the danger they fled. Neither of the American or Mexican governments offered basic food, security, sanitation or medical services to the approximately 2,000 migrant families living in tents.
