HARRIS: "So, I believe very strongly and approach the work that we are doing to address the root causes of irregular migration. I believe very strongly most people don’t want to leave home. They don’t want to leave the place where they grew up, the place -- the church where they worship, they don’t want to leave their grandmother. And when people leave home it usually is for one of two reasons, either they are fleeing harm or they cannot simply stay and take care of the basic needs of themselves and their families."
REPORTER: "Mm-hmm."
HARRIS: "So I’m approaching our root causes work with that spirit, understanding that in particular in the countries in Central America, with an emphasis on Guatemala -- I was just in Honduras, El Salvador, what we must do is help address the reasons people are leaving."
