Migrants in Nuevo León find themselves in a situation of uncertainty after the CBP One application, which facilitated entry to the United States, stopped working. Many of them, like Carlo Cruz and Ronald Madera, were affected by this unexpected cancellation. Carlo, who walked from Chiapas to Monterrey, now faces the difficult decision of continuing his journey illegally or returning to his country.
On the other hand, Ronald Madera, from El Salvador, arrived in Monterrey with the hope of reaching the United States soon, but was surprised by the news of the cancellation of CBP One. Despite the difficulties, Ronald refuses to return to his home country, preferring to take risks in search of a better future in American soil.
The cancellation of the application occurred just during Donald Trump's inauguration as president of the United States, which has generated despair among migrants in Nuevo León. Many of them now find themselves at a crossroads, not knowing what decision to make given the impossibility of accessing the "American dream" legally.
Amidst this situation, Carlo and other migrants are forced to consider options such as staying in Mexico, returning to their countries of origin, or attempting to cross the border illegally. This uncertainty has plunged many into despair, facing an uncertain future filled with obstacles. Carlo, for example, planned to reunite with his family in Oklahoma City, but now faces a complicated and uncertain landscape.
