Not quite, but there are signs of improvement:

"MAPASTEPEC, Mexico (AP) — Madison Mendoza, her feet aching and her face burned by the sun, wept as she said she had nothing to feed her 2-year-old son who she'd brought with her on the long trek toward the United States."
Over 1000 miles, actually. Her reason for undertaking this marathon trip?
She "fled Honduras with almost no money because she feared for her life after receiving threats from the father of her son." Saying "I thought that with the baby, people would help me on road."
In other words, she made some bad decisions, got involved with the wrong guy, had a baby out of wedlock, and now she's looking for handouts. Instead:
"Members of the caravan in October received food and shelter from town governments, churches and passers-by. Drivers of trucks stopped to give them a lift. Little of that is happening this time. And local officials who once gave them temporary permits to work in Mexico, now seem to snare them in red tape. Truckers and drivers have been told they will be fined if caught transporting migrants without proper documentation."
Even with half of the Federal government opposing his every move, President Trump still finds ways to keep his promise to secure the southern border.
Now, if he can just figure out what's triggering these spontaneous patterns, he could put a stop to it completely.
