The number of immigrants seeking entry into the U.S. through asylum requests or through irregular means is increasing, and most come from the Northern Triangle of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Immigrants come fleeing extreme poverty, violence, health and social inequities, and drastic climate changes. Most had limited access to healthcare at home, and even more limited care along the journey. Those that are allowed entry into the U.S., are confronted with feeling unwelcome in many communities, having to navigate an array of local, state, and federal laws that regulate access to healthcare. We need immigration policies that preserve the health, dignity with a multinational policy for provision of healthcare through a human rights lens from point of origin to point of destination.
寻求通过庇护申请或非正常手段进入美国的移民人数正在增加，其中大多数来自萨尔瓦多、危地马拉和洪都拉斯的“北方三角”地区。移民们逃离极端贫困、暴力、健康和社会不平等以及剧烈的气候变化。他们中的大多数人在本国获得的医疗保健服务有限，在旅途中获得的医疗保健服务更是有限。那些被允许进入美国的人在许多社区感到不受欢迎，他们不得不应对一系列地方、州和联邦法律，这些法律规定了获得医疗保健的途径。我们需要移民政策，从人权的角度出发，通过跨国政策，在原籍地到目的地的整个过程中，维护移民的健康、尊严和权利。
