Nearly all of them said, \"No.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's not unusual. More than 6,000 migrants who came to the United States to ask for asylum have been sent back to Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, just across the border from El Paso, to wait for their day in U.S. immigration court under the \"Remain in Mexico\" program.
