For
nearly a decade, El Salvador has consistently suffered per capita
murder rates that have been among the worst in the world. In 2016, the
people of El Salvador were victims of over 5,200 homicides--an alarming
rate of more than 80 per 100,000 and the highest globally. El Salvador
has limited capacity to absorb the nearly 200,000 individuals who could
be subjected to immediate deportation. We welcomed these individuals to
America to save them from danger. As another example, although Haiti has made important strides toward
reconstruction, its capacity to effectively manage repatriation efforts
has faced substantial setbacks, including the continuing cholera
epidemic and devastating hurricane in late 2016.
