LOS ANGELES — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced Wednesday on social media that migrants had been transported from Texas to Los Angeles.
“The first bus of migrants from Texas has arrived in Los Angeles,” the Republican governor posted on Twitter.
“Texas’ small border towns remain overwhelmed and overrun by the thousands of people illegally crossing into Texas from Mexico because of President Biden’s refusal to secure the border,” Abbott said in an accompanying news release. “Los Angeles is a major city that migrants seek to go to, particularly now that its city leaders approved its self-declared sanctuary city status.”
