The latest announcement coming from Mexico City indicates that they're seeking to shut off the flow of migrants and caravans by cracking down on their own southern border.
Mexico's top security official says the government will effectively close off illegal entry at its southern border with Guatemala.
Interior Secretary Olga Sanchez Cordero says Mexico will end the practice of undocumented or illegal crossings over the Suchiate River, which marks much of the border between the two countries.
There aren't many details on precisely how they plan on closing off that border, but it's not nearly as daunting of a task as closing the Mexican-American border.
The land bridge at the southern end of Mexico is only 540 miles long, compared to their border with the United States which runs nearly 2,000 miles.
One initial step would likely be for Mexico to permanently deploy more federal officers to patrol the region and pick people up as they enter.
If we can somehow eliminate most of the illegal immigration flowing through Mexico and into the United States from points further south, we're only left to deal with the Mexicans who want to jump the border.
