announced Friday that Texas is now busing migrants from the Mexican border to New York City, the state’s latest confrontation with an East Coast city over the influx at the border.
Abbott’s office said the first bus to New York City would arrive Friday morning at the Port Authority Bus Terminal. It comes months after Texas began offering migrants bus rides to Washington, D.C., where the mayor, Muriel Bowser,The New York City mayor, Eric Adams, has also expressed alarm, leading Abbott to invite Bowser and Adams to tour the border Monday. Adams’ office dismissed the invitation.
“In addition to Washington, D.C., New York City is the ideal destination for these migrants, who can receive the abundance of city services and housing that Mayor Eric Adams has boasted about within the sanctuary city,” Abbott said in a news release. “I hope he follows through on his promise of welcoming all migrants with open arms so that our overrun and overwhelmed border towns can find relief.”
Adams' spokesperson, Fabien Levy, shot back on Twitter, saying Abbott's"continued use of human beings as political pawns is disgusting.
Caught in the middle is President Joe Biden, who Abbott has long blamed for the border situation. Bowser has turned to the administration for help,
juniorsclan40 Abbot better start cleaning his desk!
No wonder hotels, construction, day workers need workers in the worst way. Thanks Abbott
Wonder when we'll find out how much that's costing us. Money that could be used to actually make our lives better.
juniorsclan40 Jailabbott for being a human smuggler.
Texas could bus women in search of reproductive healthcare to states that will provide it- now that would be a good use of taxpayers’ $$.

Charge abbott with human trafficking now! 10 years minimum in federal prison! If it’s not illegal I’ll bus people up north for a profit! Remember abbutt is wasting our taxpayers money! A republican giving FREE RIDES TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WITH OUR TAX MONEY! Let that sink in!
If he's bussing these people against their will he's kidnapping.
Are they undocumented? If so GregAbbott_TX is breaking a Federal Law and should be arrested.
Share the load, I say. But I won't vote for Greg Abbott.
