These people are waiting for the immigration process that will be carried out by the concerned authorities. This information was claimed by the Del Rio mayor, Bruno Lozano. Haiti is still suffering a lot from so many phenomena that took place. People are still facing the aftermath of the earthquake that killed over 2000 citizens. A lot of people are injured. Jovenel Moise, the President of the country, was assassinated in the month of July.
So for these reasons, in order to reduce the suffering of Haitians, numerous lawmakers from the Democratic Party made a request to the administration of President Joe Biden. They wanted the Haiti deportation to be halted for some time. They made the request through a letter. They also stated that the ability of the Haitian government to properly carry out the act of receiving their citizens might take a few more months.
