Texas governor Greg Abbott sends ‘1st bus’ of migrants to Los Angeles

The city found out about the bus before it arrived at Union Station, after which the migrants were directed to a nearby church

Texas governor Greg Abbott announced on Wednesday evening that his state had dropped off a busload of migrants in Los Angeles, the latest move by a rightwing governor to send people seeking help to a region run by Democrats.

Abbott claimed in a tweet that small Texas border towns remain overrun & overwhelmed because Biden refuses to secure the border", adding: LA is a city migrants seek to go to, particularly now its leaders approved its self-declared sanctuary status."
