Obrador said during a Friday news conference that he requested U.S. authorities to deploy the $20 billion in funds as part of a cooperative plan to help other countries in Latin America as record numbers of migrants are filing through Central America and Mexico to enter the U.S.

Obrador also asked the U.S. to grant visas to at least 10 million Hispanic migrants who have worked for more than 10 years in the country, which is a point he reportedly iterated to President Joe Biden during their most recent bilateral meeting in Mexico City.
