His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Trump made the assertion in response to a question from Axios reporter Jonathan Swan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eleven law professors contacted by KQED — at UC Berkeley, UC Hastings College of the Law, Stanford University, the University of San Francisco and Santa Clara University — all pushed back against the idea, which they said is bound to lead to challenges in federal court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The 14th Amendment is clear that all born in the United States are citizens of the United States,\" said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of UC Berkeley Law. \"The president has no authority to change this by executive order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USF's Jacqueline Brown Scott, a supervising attorney at the school's Immigration and Deportation Defense Clinic, called the idea \"most definitely unconstitutional\" and \"ludicrous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only a constitutional amendment or Supreme Court ruling could change the birthright citizenship clause, according to Santa Clara Law's Margaret Russell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This appears to be one more attempt for the president to expand executive power and dare anyone to stop him,\" Russell said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hastings professors Rory Little and Matthew Cole as well as USF's Bill Ong Hing emphasize that the 14th Amendment's language is straightforward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It states:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Several professors noted that Trump's interview with Axios, revealing the idea of an executive order on the issue, comes one week before voters head to the polls for the midterm election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a terrible move and designed to intimidate voters and energize Trump's base,\" said Bernadette Meyler, professor of law and co-associate dean for curriculum at Stanford.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702389/trump-says-he-will-void-birthright-citizenship-law-through-executive-order\">Paul Ryan Dismisses Trump Plan to Void Birthright Citizenship Law by Executive Order\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702389/trump-says-he-will-void-birthright-citizenship-law-through-executive-order\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/PaulRyan-1180x787.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Julie Nice, a USF law professor, said she is certain most constitutional law scholars view the proposal as \"blatantly\" unconstitutional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The pattern of the Trump administration is to make proposals that serve political purposes even if they are outside of clear constitutional bounds,\" Nice said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara Law's Pratheepan Gulasekaram agreed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The notion that the president, on his own unilateral decision making, can change the Constitution, is absolutely absurd,\" Gulasekaram said in an interview. \"It very well might not be that the end goal here is to actually change it through executive order, but to fire up a base.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>USF's Maya Manian called Trump's idea another unwarranted attack on immigrants' rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a long history of attacks on birthright citizenship in the U.S., particularly during important election cycles,\" Manian said. \"Scapegoating immigrants has been a hallmark of the Trump presidency.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics of birthright citizenship say it encourages immigrants who want to travel to the U.S. to have their babies here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The birthright issue became part of Trump's hard-line policies on immigration as a presidential candidate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump told Axios on HBO that he no longer believes a constitutional amendment is needed to change the policy.

"content": "\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan pushed back on Tuesday on President Trump's claim that he can strip birthright citizenship from the U.S. via executive order, saying such a move would be \"unconstitutional.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Well, you obviously cannot do that,\" Ryan told \u003ca href=\"http://www.wvlkam.com/\">radio station WVLK\u003c/a> in Kentucky. \"You cannot end birthright citizenship with an executive order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ryan noted any changes to a constitutional amendment require an act of Congress, adding: \"We didn't like it when Obama tried changing immigration laws via executive action, and obviously as conservatives we believe in the Constitution. ... I'm a believer in following the plain text of the Constitution and I think in this case the 14th Amendment is pretty clear, and that would involve a very, very lengthy constitutional process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump announced his plan to circumvent Congress to revoke the 150-year-old birthright law \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/trump-birthright-citizenship-executive-order-0cf4285a-16c6-48f2-a933-bd71fd72ea82.html\">in an interview\u003c/a> with \u003cem>Axios on HBO\u003c/em> that is slated to air Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional amendment.

Now Trump is discussing the birthright citizenship law roughly one week before U.S. voters will head to the polls for the 2018 midterm election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to guaranteeing citizenship by birth in the U.S., the 14th Amendment bars states from denying essential rights without due process. As \u003ca href=\"https://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/14thamendment.html\">the Library of Congress notes\u003c/a>, the amendment \"greatly expanded the protection of civil rights to all Americans and is cited in more litigation than any other amendment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The amendment's final section notes that it is Congress — not the president — who has the power \"to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702387/bay-area-law-professors-call-trumps-plan-to-end-birthright-citizenship-ludicrous\">Bay Area Law Professors Call Trump's Plan to End Birthright Citizenship 'Ludicrous'\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702387/bay-area-law-professors-call-trumps-plan-to-end-birthright-citizenship-ludicrous\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Trump-1180x839.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The 14th Amendment became law in 1868, as a rebuke to the Supreme Court's \u003cem>Dred Scott\u003c/em> decision, which had held that freed slaves were not U.S. citizens. Since then, its meaning and reach have been debated in courtrooms and in American society, with many questions centering on the phrase \"the jurisdiction thereof.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That means that they are subject to the laws of the United States, that they can, for example, be prosecuted for violating American law,\" constitutional law professor Suzanna Sherry \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2015/08/19/432910305/trump-immigration-plan-raises-legal-questions-about-birthright-citizenship\">told NPR in 2015\u003c/a>. The law excludes, for instance, the children of foreign diplomats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 1860s, it was intended both to grant citizenship to freed slaves and to give peace of mind to immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Sherry, who teaches at Vanderbilt University, told NPR in 2015, \"the United States had experienced quite a bit of immigration, and immigration was viewed as a very good thing. And so this was essentially putting out a welcome mat to immigrants by ensuring that their children born here would be citizens.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To change the law, Sherry said, you would need to either amend the 14th Amendment through Congress or ask the Supreme Court to overturn its earlier interpretation of the law and limit its benefit to people who are in the U.S. legally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many legal scholars agree, the president says he has the power to act on his own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can definitely do it with an act of Congress,\" Trump said in the \u003cem>Axios on HBO\u003c/em> interview. \"But now they're saying I can do it just with an executive order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, \"We're the only country in the world where a person comes in, has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States for 85 years, with all of those benefits. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous, and it has to end.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But birthright citizenship is the law of at least 30 countries, including many U.S. neighbors in North and South America.

Now Trump is discussing the birthright citizenship law roughly one week before U.S. voters will head to the polls for the 2018 midterm election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to guaranteeing citizenship by birth in the U.S., the 14th Amendment bars states from denying essential rights without due process. As \u003ca href=\"https://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/14thamendment.html\">the Library of Congress notes\u003c/a>, the amendment \"greatly expanded the protection of civil rights to all Americans and is cited in more litigation than any other amendment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The amendment's final section notes that it is Congress — not the president — who has the power \"to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702387/bay-area-law-professors-call-trumps-plan-to-end-birthright-citizenship-ludicrous\">Bay Area Law Professors Call Trump's Plan to End Birthright Citizenship 'Ludicrous'\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11702387/bay-area-law-professors-call-trumps-plan-to-end-birthright-citizenship-ludicrous\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Trump-1180x839.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The 14th Amendment became law in 1868, as a rebuke to the Supreme Court's \u003cem>Dred Scott\u003c/em> decision, which had held that freed slaves were not U.S. citizens. Since then, its meaning and reach have been debated in courtrooms and in American society, with many questions centering on the phrase \"the jurisdiction thereof.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That means that they are subject to the laws of the United States, that they can, for example, be prosecuted for violating American law,\" constitutional law professor Suzanna Sherry \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2015/08/19/432910305/trump-immigration-plan-raises-legal-questions-about-birthright-citizenship\">told NPR in 2015\u003c/a>. The law excludes, for instance, the children of foreign diplomats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 1860s, it was intended both to grant citizenship to freed slaves and to give peace of mind to immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Sherry, who teaches at Vanderbilt University, told NPR in 2015, \"the United States had experienced quite a bit of immigration, and immigration was viewed as a very good thing. And so this was essentially putting out a welcome mat to immigrants by ensuring that their children born here would be citizens.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To change the law, Sherry said, you would need to either amend the 14th Amendment through Congress or ask the Supreme Court to overturn its earlier interpretation of the law and limit its benefit to people who are in the U.S. legally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many legal scholars agree, the president says he has the power to act on his own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can definitely do it with an act of Congress,\" Trump said in the \u003cem>Axios on HBO\u003c/em> interview. \"But now they're saying I can do it just with an executive order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added, \"We're the only country in the world where a person comes in, has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States for 85 years, with all of those benefits.

"content": "\u003cp>WASHINGTON — A week out from the midterm elections, the Pentagon said Monday it is sending 5,200 troops, some armed, to the Southwest border this week in an extraordinary military operation to stop Central American migrants traveling north in two caravans that are still hundreds of miles from the U.S. The number of troops is more than double the 2,000 who are in Syria fighting the Islamic State group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump, eager to focus voters on immigration in the lead-up to the elections, stepped up his warnings about the caravans, tweeting: \"This is an invasion of our Country and our Military is waiting for you!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1056919064906469376\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's warning came as the Pentagon began executing \"Operation Faithful Patriot,\" described by the commander of U.S. Northern Command as an effort to help U.S. Customs and Border Protection stiffen defenses at and near legal entry points. Advanced helicopters will allow border protection agents to swoop down on migrants trying to cross illegally, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're going to secure the border,\" Air Force Gen. Terrence O'Shaughnessy, the Northern Command leader, said at a news conference. He spoke alongside Kevin McAleenan, commissioner of Customs and Border Protection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eight hundred troops are already on their way to southern Texas, O'Shaughnessy said, and their numbers will top 5,200 by week's end. He said troops would focus first on Texas, followed by Arizona and then California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about the approaching caravan, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra pushed back on the notion that the migrants are violent and called Trump's plans to use American troops in response \"disturbing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My sense is that these migrants that are traveling by caravan are not looking for violence,\" Becerra said in an interview late last week with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you move troops anywhere, you're moving people who have been trained to defend this country to the point of killing others,\" he said. \"And so we've always been careful in how we deploy our troops. That this president makes such facile use of our troops is disturbing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe that this nation has a right as a sovereign nation to decide who comes into the country,\" Becerra added. \"And I believe anyone who wants to enter this country must do it according to our laws. But I also believe that our federal government must abide by those same laws when it exercises its powers in dealing with those who might want to enter the country. And so I fear that this administration is sending the wrong signals to people about how it approaches not just these migrants but the law.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11357550\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11357550\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"California Attorney General Xavier Becerra.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/03/RS23547_GettyImages-530551244-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">California Attorney General Xavier Becerra. \u003ccite>(Drew Angerer/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The number of people in the first caravan has dwindled to 3,500 from about 7,000, though a second one was gaining steam and marred by violence. About 600 migrants in the second group tried to cross a bridge from Guatemala to Mexico en masse on Monday, but were met by ranks of Mexican federal police who blocked them from entering. The riverbank standoff followed a more violent confrontation Sunday when the migrants used sticks and rocks against Mexico police. One migrant was killed Sunday night by a head wound, but the cause was unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first group passed through the spot via the river — wading or on rafts — and was advancing through southern Mexico. That group appeared to begin as a collection of about 160 who decided to band together in Honduras for protection against the gangs who prey on migrants traveling alone and snowballed as the group moved north. They are mostly from Honduras, where it started, as well as El Salvador and Guatemala.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, they are poor, carrying belongings that fit into a knapsack and fleeing gang violence or poverty.

About 600 migrants in the second group tried to cross a bridge from Guatemala to Mexico en masse on Monday, but were met by ranks of Mexican federal police who blocked them from entering. The riverbank standoff followed a more violent confrontation Sunday when the migrants used sticks and rocks against Mexico police.

But, she said, that has never been the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaubeca speculated that the ICE announcement was related to an executive order the president is expected to announce next week, aimed at blocking a caravan of thousands of Central Americans seeking asylum in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Diego, advocates also said they had seen no changes to the number and manner of family releases since the government’s announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lauren Cusitello with Crossroads Justice Center, a nonprofit group that provides legal services to migrants, said community organizations in the San Diego can provide a lot of support to migrant families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are resources available to make sure that that they are safe and healthy,” Cusitello said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she worried that if ICE stops reviewing families’ post-release plans, the burden will shift to nonprofit and church groups to locate families and ensure their safety.

Children who cannot be released, must be transferred to a state-licensed child care facility, usually within 72 hours. A federal judge has ruled that the agreement applies to children with a known parent as well as those who arrive at the border without their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlos Holguín, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys in the Flores case, said the change in ICE policy is “not necessary” to comply with the settlement agreement. That’s because the number of migrant kids has been high in recent years, triggering an exemption to the 72-hour rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Holguín, the government must simply release children from unlicensed immigration facilities along the border “as expeditiously as possible.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The only hard limit on family detention right now is the capacity of the three family detention centers,” Holguín said. “Inasmuch as those are not full, ICE’s statements appear aimed at spreading disinformation.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

And that could mean some people don’t get help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There may be people whose needs go unmet even though there are providers in the community,” Cusitello said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her statement, ICE’s Rodriguez said: “The government remains severely constrained in its ability to detain and promptly remove families with no legal basis to remain in the U.S.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She went on: “[D]ue to the recent uptick in family units presenting themselves along the Southwest border, ICE no longer has the capacity to conduct … reviews without risking violation of the Flores limitations on lengths of stay for families in both [U.S. Customs and Border Patrol] and ICE custody.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 1997 Flores Settlement Agreement requires migrant children to be kept in the least restrictive environment possible and released from custody as soon as possible. Children who cannot be released, must be transferred to a state-licensed child care facility, usually within 72 hours. A federal judge has ruled that the agreement applies to children with a known parent as well as those who arrive at the border without their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlos Holguín, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys in the Flores case, said the change in ICE policy is “not necessary” to comply with the settlement agreement. That’s because the number of migrant kids has been high in recent years, triggering an exemption to the 72-hour rule.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Holguín, the government must simply release children from unlicensed immigration facilities along the border “as expeditiously as possible.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The only hard limit on family detention right now is the capacity of the three family detention centers,” Holguín said. “Inasmuch as those are not full, ICE’s statements appear aimed at spreading disinformation.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Mexico’s National Migration Institute says the Mexican government has processed \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/SEGOB_mx/status/1054167098371403776\">more than 1,000 refugee claims\u003c/a> in the past three days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that’s just a fraction of the caravan that continues to press on. Evaluations of the caravan’s size have varied. But according to \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/mayaaverbuch/status/1054118622367567872\">at least one estimate\u003c/a>, upward of 7,000 migrants\u003cstrong>,\u003c/strong> including families with infants and the elderly, are now tramping north through \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/jameslfredrick/status/1054058362781032448\">the sweltering heat\u003c/a> of Mexico’s Chiapas state, just north of the Guatemalan border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the group has grown and grappled with the conditions, the migrants have been met with a confused response from Mexican officials.

The State Department says the money, which is spent in collaboration with programs run by the three countries, aims to \u003ca href=\"https://www.state.gov/p/wha/rt/strat/\">promote economic growth, step up security and strengthen the rule of law\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Honduras alone, agricultural investments by the U.S. Agency for International Development “have helped lift 68,000 people out of extreme poverty,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.usglc.org/faq-violence-migration-and-u-s-assistance-to-central-america/\">according to\u003c/a> the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition, a group advocating for stronger international assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Trump has been skeptical of the value of this aid, which he \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/19/trump-cut-foreign-aid-to-countries-sending-not-their-best-people.html\">has often used\u003c/a> as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-42431095\">point of leverage\u003c/a> against certain countries. He specifically called out Honduras and \u003ca href=\"https://www.texastribune.org/2018/04/03/trump-says-hell-send-military-guard-us-mexico-border-threatens-foreign/\">threatened\u003c/a> the country during the approach of a similar caravan earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11700364\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11700364\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/migrant-caravan-5_slide-9ba307b23d153af900f0e936dc4ac99cec9e8b3b-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Migrant families cross into Mexico using a raft to avoid the Mexican officials perched on the bridge above the Suchiate River.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Migrant families cross into Mexico using a raft to avoid the Mexican officials perched on the bridge above the Suchiate River. \u003ccite>(John Moore/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Last year, he also \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-42431095\">threatened to cut foreign aid\u003c/a> to United Nations member states that voted to condemn the U.S. for moving its embassy in Israel to the disputed city of Jerusalem. Honduras and Guatemala were among just nine countries to side with the U.S. in \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/12/21/572565091/u-n-votes-overwhelmingly-to-condemn-trumps-jerusalem-decision\">that U.N. General Assembly vote\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it remains unclear just how much power Trump actually has when it comes to cutting aid on his own. The BBC \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42557818\">reported earlier this year\u003c/a> that because Congress controls federal spending, it gets the final say on matters of foreign aid — though the president does have some leeway, depending on the program:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Congress can approve or alter the administration’s budgetary proposals and can also specify in substantial detail where it wants the aid to go – even if that’s in opposition to what the president wants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“However, in situations where Congress has not gone into specifics, an administration has a considerable amount of flexibility about how exactly it spends the allocated budget – although it has to notify Congress of its intentions.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>An official at the U.S. Agency for International Development, when contacted by NPR, deferred to the White House when asked for further information. “The president has made clear that countries receiving assistance from the United States should support our interests,” the official said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the migrants themselves, however, such threats are secondary to more pressing matters — namely, the violence they’re fleeing and the hunger they’re suffering on the road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11700366\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11700366\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/migrant-caravan-8_slide-e298cd91150b0e5461d045079063230dcac7d5ad-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Members of a migrant caravan carry their children on the walk deeper into Mexico after crossing the Guatemalan border Sunday.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of a migrant caravan carry their children on the walk deeper into Mexico after crossing the Guatemalan border Sunday. \u003ccite>(John Moore/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“The kids are enduring heat.

The State Department says the money, which is spent in collaboration with programs run by the three countries, aims to \u003ca href=\"https://www.state.gov/p/wha/rt/strat/\">promote economic growth, step up security and strengthen the rule of law\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Honduras alone, agricultural investments by the U.S. Agency for International Development “have helped lift 68,000 people out of extreme poverty,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.usglc.org/faq-violence-migration-and-u-s-assistance-to-central-america/\">according to\u003c/a> the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition, a group advocating for stronger international assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Trump has been skeptical of the value of this aid, which he \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/19/trump-cut-foreign-aid-to-countries-sending-not-their-best-people.html\">has often used\u003c/a> as a \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-42431095\">point of leverage\u003c/a> against certain countries.

Honduras and Guatemala were among just nine countries to side with the U.S. in \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/12/21/572565091/u-n-votes-overwhelmingly-to-condemn-trumps-jerusalem-decision\">that U.N.

The BBC \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42557818\">reported earlier this year\u003c/a> that because Congress controls federal spending, it gets the final say on matters of foreign aid — though the president does have some leeway, depending on the program:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Congress can approve or alter the administration’s budgetary proposals and can also specify in substantial detail where it wants the aid to go – even if that’s in opposition to what the president wants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“However, in situations where Congress has not gone into specifics, an administration has a considerable amount of flexibility about how exactly it spends the allocated budget – although it has to notify Congress of its intentions.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>An official at the U.S. Agency for International Development, when contacted by NPR, deferred to the White House when asked for further information. “The president has made clear that countries receiving assistance from the United States should support our interests,” the official said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the migrants themselves, however, such threats are secondary to more pressing matters — namely, the violence they’re fleeing and the hunger they’re suffering on the road.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11700366\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11700366\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/migrant-caravan-8_slide-e298cd91150b0e5461d045079063230dcac7d5ad-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Members of a migrant caravan carry their children on the walk deeper into Mexico after crossing the Guatemalan border Sunday.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of a migrant caravan carry their children on the walk deeper into Mexico after crossing the Guatemalan border Sunday. \u003ccite>(John Moore/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“The kids are enduring heat.
