Ilienses told AP she was sent back to Haiti from Texas on Dec. 14, 2021. “To get to the USA, I braved hell,” she said. Still, she did not dismiss doing it again “because Haiti offers nothing to its children. We are forced to suffer humiliations, affronts everywhere.” (AP Photo / Odelyn Joseph)

Mariana López sits with her 7-year-old daughter at their home in Ahuachapan, El Salvador, May 19, 2022. López says she had an obstetric emergency in 2000, but was arrested on suspicion of inducing an abortion. She served 17 years in prison before being released when her 25-year sentence was commuted. El Salvador bans abortion under all circumstances; women who suffer miscarriages and stillbirths are sometimes accused of killing their babies and sentenced to years or even decades in prison.
