75 migrants bussed from Texas arrive in Chicago as part of Greg Abbott policy

Texas's Republican governor has sent migrants to Chicago, New York and Washington DC, all of which have Democratic mayors

Seventy-five migrants bussed from Texas by the rightwing Republican governor, Greg Abbott, have arrived in Chicago, the latest chapter of the bitter political battle over the immigration policy of Joe Biden's administration.

The migrants are being bussed from Texas as part of a strategy launched by Abbott this year to share the influx of people from outside the United States with liberal cities. The Arizona governor, Doug Ducey, has also adopted this policy.
