SAN DIEGO (Border Report) -- Since June, as many as 200 people per day are being deported from the San Diego side of the border into Tijuana, according to José Luis Pérez Canchola, head of the Migrant Affairs office in Tijuana. He says on average, 3,500 deportations are taking place every month. "I spoke with the United States Consul General who said on average, from Monday through Friday, 125 to 200 men, women and children are being sent back through Tijuana," said Pérez Canchola. "More than half will illegally cross the border again and make it north, but some will die by falling off the walls, drown in the ocean or suffer some sort of tragedy along the way." Migrants linger on border as Mexico crackdown continues, Trump deportations loom There is a proposal being considered by Mexico's president to provide more funding for services that will help migrants who get deported, especially unaccompanied minors, something Pérez Canchola supports. "These resources should be provided only to those of us along the border, we need the funding for shelters, migrant services, fleets of buses for transportation back to their hometowns," he said. Pérez Canchola expects the number of deportations will rise once President-Elect Trump takes office.
