Venezuelan Family's Dangerous Journey to the US and Life in Detention Centers.

TL;DR Summary
A Venezuelan family's journey to the US highlights the dangers faced by asylum seekers, particularly in the deadly stretch of the Darien Gap. Despite new restrictions on asylum, thousands of people continue to migrate to flee poverty, violence, and political persecution in their countries. The family found shelter with the Catholic diocese in El Paso, where they await a summer court date for asylum and a work permit. The diocese has assisted the family since they arrived last September and is unsure how many more migrants will arrive in the coming weeks.
