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.",

"content": "\u003cp>Advocates for immigrants along the U.S.-Mexico border say a Tuesday decision by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to no longer provide assistance to migrant families being released from detention may be more rhetorical than real.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until this week, ICE had a policy of conducting “post-release planning” to ensure that migrant families being released in the U.S. had transportation arrangements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Tuesday, ICE abandoned the policy, ostensibly in order to release families from detention more quickly and adhere to court orders on the treatment of migrant children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To mitigate the risk of holding family units past the time frame allotted to the government, ICE began curtailing all reviews of post-release plans from families apprehended along the southwest border,” ICE Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Rodriguez said in a statement shared with KQED Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant rights advocates say they learned about the policy change only after it was implemented.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Catholic church group in El Paso, Texas, that provides temporary housing for hundreds of migrant families released from local detention facilities each week, expressed concern. In an email to supporters, Annunciation House warned that the group’s shelters could be overwhelmed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Annunciation House is committed to increasing its network of hospitality centers so as to prevent releases to the street,\" the email says. \"Right now we are not there yet and so I expect that we will start seeing families with their children on the street in the coming days.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Vicki Gaubeca with the Southern Border Communities Coalition in Tucson, Arizona, said that in recent years ICE has already been making large-scale releases of families without ensuring they have transportation arrangements from border detention facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's not an unusual event,” Gaubeca said. “But it is part of the enhanced political theater … that's in essence trying to rally the Republican base to come out and vote through a narrative of fear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaubeca said the ICE policy change seems calculated to give an impression that migrants seeking refuge in the U.S. will overwhelm border communities. 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. 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",

In an email to supporters, Annunciation House warned that the group’s shelters could be overwhelmed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Annunciation House is committed to increasing its network of hospitality centers so as to prevent releases to the street,\" the email says. \"Right now we are not there yet and so I expect that we will start seeing families with their children on the street in the coming days.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Vicki Gaubeca with the Southern Border Communities Coalition in Tucson, Arizona, said that in recent years ICE has already been making large-scale releases of families without ensuring they have transportation arrangements from border detention facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's not an unusual event,” Gaubeca said. “But it is part of the enhanced political theater … that's in essence trying to rally the Republican base to come out and vote through a narrative of fear.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaubeca said the ICE policy change seems calculated to give an impression that migrants seeking refuge in the U.S. will overwhelm border communities. 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. 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>",

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.

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.

But as the former head of a Cabinet department, she also noticed something else: a total lack of planning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You could just tell that the three agencies that were involved -- the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Health and Human Services -- had done no preplanning for this,\" Napolitano said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[They] had no system in place for how they were going to keep families and children ... parents and children ... in touch with each other, even if they were to be separated, which they shouldn't have been separated to begin with, or how to bring them together,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And so now they're trying frantically because the courts are making them, and the court of public opinion is making them, to knit together a system [that] at the very least should have been thought through ahead of time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What tipped Napolitano off to the Trump administration's lack of planning?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Well, first of all the announcement by the attorney general that we're going to do zero tolerance, and the effect on law enforcement ... [was] that you've got to pull federal prosecutors off of doing serious drug smuggling, human trafficking, gunrunning cases to do what are at most federal misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The other thing that tipped me off was the fact that once you put the adults into the criminal justice system, the children can't go there. So that must have required separation. And yet there seemed to be no appreciation in Washington about how the one thing -- the zero tolerance policy -- led necessarily to the other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And then the third thing was the obvious scramble to find safe, child-amenable housing for the children who were separated. So you had horrible pictures on TV of these places that were never designed to keep large numbers of children for an extended period,\" Napolitano said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11682413\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11682413\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"UC President and former Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano talked with The California Report in her office in Oakland on July 17, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Napolitano2-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">UC President and former Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano talked with The California Report in her office in Oakland on July 17, 2018. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One of the goals of the Trump administration's zero tolerance policy is to deter people trying to cross into the U.S. illegally. Napolitano doesn't see that as a reasonable strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think a deterrence-based strategy when people are migrating out of desperation doesn't really work,\" Napolitano said. \"It may deter a few people at the margins, but when the factors contributing to the migration are widespread and serious, I don't think justifying a zero tolerance policy as a deterrent actually works.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>On Building a Border Wall\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the Trump administration \u003ca href=\"https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/08/22/homeland-security-secretary-border-walls-work-yuma-sector-proves-it-elaine-duke-column/586853001/\">has pointed to an Arizona policy\u003c/a> implemented while Napolitano was governor as a reason to build a border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2005, more than 800 people were arrested crossing into Yuma, Arizona, from Mexico. Congress approved a 20-foot-high, reinforced metal fence that stretches the length of Yuma. Crime immediately fell by double-digit rates \u003ca href=\"http://www.city-data.com/crime/crime-Yuma-Arizona.html\">in the area\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano appeared with then-President George W. Bush and \u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcnews.com/id/12851381/ns/politics/t/bush-visits-ground-zero-immigration-debate/#.W1X6kdVKjIU\">spoke in support of tough security measures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, Napolitano has said that building a similar structure along the entire border \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2016/02/22/intv-amanpour-janet-napolitano-trump-wall.cnn\">would not work\u003c/a>, a position she reiterated in her conversation with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Yuma sector is a very small sector along the southwest border,” Napolitano said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's much smaller than say, for example, even the Tucson sector in Arizona. And when you think in terms of just actual cost ... as I said and have said for years ... show me a 50-foot wall and I’ll show you a 51-foot ladder.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano emphasized a more holistic approach to border security as one with the best chance for success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We need to stop thinking about [border security] as simply a literal space, but really as a strategy that begins outside the borders of the United States, that includes the right level of manpower, the right kind of technology.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>On Rescinding DACA\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Napolitano -- who helped implement the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program as DHS secretary -- \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/08/us/politics/napolitano-sues-trump-to-save-daca-program-she-helped-create.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sued President Trump\u003c/a> last year to preserve the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I began DACA when I was secretary ... I take it personally,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano said she took issue with Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ announcement rescinding DACA. While Sessions said that the rescission should not be seen as meaning DACA recipients are “bad people,” he also described DACA as a failure to enforce the laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Failure to enforce the laws in the past has put our nation at risk of crime, violence and even terrorism,” Sessions said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, studies of DACA and DACA-age recipients show this group commits crime at a lower rate than native-born United States citizens. These findings have held even in surveys conducted by \u003ca href=\"https://www.cato.org/publications/immigration-research-policy-brief/dreamer-incarceration-rate#full\">conservative think tanks\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>”I thought the attorney general's announcement of the decision was just over the top also because he made comments about the qualities of DACA recipients, not recognizing that they are students, that they are in the military,” Napolitano said. “They have started and owned small businesses. They can't be a known gang member or a security threat or anything of that sort.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano also pushed back on Sessions' and Trump’s claim that DACA was an overreach of the Obama administration that violated the lawmaking process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To simply say we're going to end it and then in kind of one line say because the program is illegal. ... It's not illegal,” Napolitano said. “It was done and created very carefully with lots of input from lawyers at the Department of Justice and at the White House.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

So that must have required separation. And yet there seemed to be no appreciation in Washington about how the one thing -- the zero tolerance policy -- led necessarily to the other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And then the third thing was the obvious scramble to find safe, child-amenable housing for the children who were separated.

Congress approved a 20-foot-high, reinforced metal fence that stretches the length of Yuma.

Bush and \u003ca href=\"http://www.nbcnews.com/id/12851381/ns/politics/t/bush-visits-ground-zero-immigration-debate/#.W1X6kdVKjIU\">spoke in support of tough security measures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, Napolitano has said that building a similar structure along the entire border \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2016/02/22/intv-amanpour-janet-napolitano-trump-wall.cnn\">would not work\u003c/a>, a position she reiterated in her conversation with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Yuma sector is a very small sector along the southwest border,” Napolitano said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's much smaller than say, for example, even the Tucson sector in Arizona. And when you think in terms of just actual cost ... as I said and have said for years ... show me a 50-foot wall and I’ll show you a 51-foot ladder.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano emphasized a more holistic approach to border security as one with the best chance for success.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We need to stop thinking about [border security] as simply a literal space, but really as a strategy that begins outside the borders of the United States, that includes the right level of manpower, the right kind of technology.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>On Rescinding DACA\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Napolitano -- who helped implement the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program as DHS secretary -- \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/08/us/politics/napolitano-sues-trump-to-save-daca-program-she-helped-create.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sued President Trump\u003c/a> last year to preserve the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I began DACA when I was secretary ... I take it personally,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano said she took issue with Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ announcement rescinding DACA. While Sessions said that the rescission should not be seen as meaning DACA recipients are “bad people,” he also described DACA as a failure to enforce the laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Failure to enforce the laws in the past has put our nation at risk of crime, violence and even terrorism,” Sessions said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, studies of DACA and DACA-age recipients show this group commits crime at a lower rate than native-born United States citizens. These findings have held even in surveys conducted by \u003ca href=\"https://www.cato.org/publications/immigration-research-policy-brief/dreamer-incarceration-rate#full\">conservative think tanks\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>”I thought the attorney general's announcement of the decision was just over the top also because he made comments about the qualities of DACA recipients, not recognizing that they are students, that they are in the military,” Napolitano said. “They have started and owned small businesses. They can't be a known gang member or a security threat or anything of that sort.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Napolitano also pushed back on Sessions' and Trump’s claim that DACA was an overreach of the Obama administration that violated the lawmaking process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But they’re bored and restless, and there is no apparent end to their wait.

Shortly after, a private security guard came out and demanded everyone leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After this exchange, the KQED reporter walked over to the station headquarters and asked to speak with a supervisor.

I don’t know where he got that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, the mothers returned to the plaza, setting up against the white metallic border fence to wait for a new chance to ask for asylum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The evening sun cast a long shadow, and the women positioned themselves to get covered by a thin slice of shade.
