According to a Rice University study, migrant caravans are often caused by harsher immigration policies.

by the same cartels that victimize migrants as a manner of exploiting multiple victims simultaneously. The study also found a need for a comprehensive, all-of-government approach to cartel revenue denial and that there is no specific or targeted revenue-denial program in place to provide a consequence for cartel crimes.

While more-lenient immigration policies may generate more migration over the long haul, punitive policies generate a surge in migration to get ahead of the enactment of restrictive policies, potentially resulting in caravans, Hale wrote. Both kinds have done little to deter migrants from crossing into the U.S., however, the study found. In addition, walls, fences, barricades, bridges, patrols, technology and laws do not deter illegal entries.

The migrants who rushed the border at El Paso over the weekend were likely responding to President Biden's January announcement that the U.S. would return to a Trump-era policy, Hale added. Policies intended to halt both legal and illegal migration are intended to manage the orderly arrival of many categories of migrants into the U.S., whether they are seeking asylum or just a better life, Hale wrote. Constantly changing immigration policy seems to be counter-productive because there is no consistency with which the government manages the ebbs and flows of people reaching the Southern border.
