To assist with processing the 15,000 Haitian migrants that came through Del Rio, Customs and Border Protection built a 100,000 square-foot tent in Laredo, Texas — about 180 miles from Del Rio.

Once they’re processed in Laredo, they’re bused to even bigger cities like Houston and Dallas. And resources are strained.
