But any migrants who arrive at the U.S. border within the first 100 days of the new Biden administration will likely be disappointed. On Sunday, an unnamed Biden transition official said the migrants hoping to claim asylum in the U.S. during the first few weeks of the administration “need to understand they’re not going to be able to come into the U.S. immediately,” NBC News reported.

The Biden transition official told NBC News that while “there’s help on the way,” now “is not the time to make the journey.”

“I said if Biden became president, this would happen,” Thomas Homan, former acting director of ICE, told Fox News. “The things he said, the promises that he made … like ending the remain in Mexico program, and getting rid of private detention, putting a moratorium on deportations, stopping ICE from doing worksite enforcement operations, offering free healthcare. When you throw those kinds of enticements out, who’s not going to come to the greatest country on Earth?”

“I briefed the White House numerous times on what’s causing the surges. So, he knew by throwing all those promises out, to cater to the left to win an election, he put his own political ambitions ahead of the country.”

Asked what he thought about the Biden transition official telling migrants that now is not the best time to come to the U.S., Homan said: “Too little, too late.”

“They’re already on their way. They’re not going to wait in Mexico. They’re going to try to come across the border,” Homan said. “Sooner or later, even if they do gather up in Mexico city, (Biden) is going to open the flood gates.”

BIDEN CONFRONTED WITH MIGRANT CARAVAN CHALLENGE AS HE TAKES OFFICE, GOP BLAMES CAMPAIGN RHETORIC

Pueblo Sin Fronteras, a migrant rights group, issued a statement on behalf of the caravan, saying it expects the Biden administration to take action.

The group is expected to hold a virtual press conference in Tijuana Tuesday afternoon, where they will call on the incoming administration to reverse President Trump’s policies and immediately allow asylum seekers to continue the asylum process in the U.S.

In a statement released Monday, the group assailed Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy, which compels migrants seeking asylum in the U.S. to wait in Mexico while their case is being reviewed.

Pueblo Sin Fronteras said at Tuesday’s press conference it will release a petition for the Biden administration. Items on the list include a demand the U.S. border be open to people who are seeking asylum, the elimination of the Remain in Mexico policy, an end to the separation of migrant families, and the “guarantee” of legal representation for asylum seekers.
