SUMMARY
Deep-blue, Democrat-dominated sanctuary cities have bused nearly 60,000 migrants to other locations, according to a New York Times report. Texas Governor Greg Abbott initiated a busing program that relocated around 120,000 migrants from Texas border towns to cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. This move forced these cities to manage the influx of migrants, challenging their sanctuary policies. New York has reportedly paid more than 35,000 migrants to leave the state, and Denver and Illinois have also sent thousands elsewhere. Critics argue that this showcases the strain on resources and highlights how the Biden administration’s immigration policies are importing poverty. Cuban migrant Reydel Grau, who was bused to New York, exemplifies this issue, earning $30,000 annually, below the city’s poverty threshold.
