Address Root Causes to Stem Migration

Addressing the root causes of migration from countries like Venezuela, Cuba, and Haiti is essential for effectively managing immigration issues. Current US foreign policies, such as sanctions, contribute significantly to the outflow of migrants. There is a misunderstanding in the belief that all individuals wish to migrate to the US; many prefer to remain in their home countries if conditions improve. Both major political parties need to reconsider their approaches to immigration and foreign policy, focusing on reducing sanctions and fostering positive changes in migrants' countries of origin to decrease the flow of illegal crossings at the border.
