Central American asylum seekers in Mexican border town Tijuana reportedly marched to the U.S. Consulate on Tuesday to present the Trump administration with an ultimatum: Let us into the country or give us $50,000 each to turn back home

In a letter written to the Trump administration, the group said that the slow processing of asylum claims at the U.S. border violated American and international laws.

While thousands of asylum seekers have waited in Tijuana to make their claims, hundreds of others have already chosen to "self-deport" themselves back to the home countries they fled. Many had left Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador over fears of violence and political and economic instability.
