Texas To Start Busing Illegal Immigrants To Washington DC
On Wednesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced that his state will be busing illegal immigrants caught entering the state to Washington, D.C., to encourage the Biden administration to strengthen security along the southern border. The news comes shortly after the Biden administration announced it would be ending Title 42, a Trump-era border security policy.
“With the Biden administration ending Title 42 expulsions in May, Texas will be taking its own unprecedented actions this month to do what no state in America has ever done in the history of this country to better secure our state, as well as our nation,” Abbott said during a press conference.
“To help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed with hordes of illegal immigrants who are being dropped off by the Biden administration, Texas is providing charter buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden administration to Washington, D.C.,” Abbott announced. “We are sending them to the United States capital where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border.”
Abbott also announced “enhanced public safety inspection of vehicles” traveling from Mexico into Texas at ports of entry. This will “dramatically slow traffic from Mexico into Texas,” Abbott admitted, but he said the new process is necessary to curb the record high levels of illegal immigration on the southern border.
“Those two strategies are in addition to announcing the following actions to further deter illegal immigrants, including deploying boat blockades at appropriate regions in the Rio Grande River, deploying razor wire at low-water crossings in high traffic areas, creating container blockades to drive people away from low water crossings,” Abbott said.
Last week, the Biden administration announced that it would be ending Title 42, a Trump-era border security policy, in May. According to a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) document obtained by ABC News, the end of Title 42 will result in as many as 18,000 migrants crossing the southern border illegally each day.
“The DHS Office of Immigration Statistics (OIS) produced projections for post-Title 42 Southwest Border encounters describing low, medium, high, or very high encounter scenarios,” the document says. “These scenarios underpin planning assumptions that generate requirements which in turn drive operational execution. Based on these projections the SBCC is currently planning for 6,000, 12,000 (high) and 18,000 (very high) encounters per day.”

Good for Gov. Abbott. All republican states should be sending there illegal’s to the blue states. They(blue States) want to let them in so badly, let them foot a bigger portion of the bill for keeping them here in the USA.

Many of us have been advocating taking illegals to DC and dropping them off @ Capital steps!! Also, in front of Biden, Pelosi, and various Senator & Representatives homes. Watch how quickly immigration laws are strictly enforced and the Wall is finished!! CONGRATS TO GOVERNOR ABBOT👏 Now let’s see other governors step up!

Think if Gov DeSantis is as smart as I think he is, he should do the same thing before they have a chance to establish a strong hold here in Florida. Send them to DELAWARE

Great news from Texas!! And the right move. Hopefully they will bus them from DC to Delaware. Unfortunately American taxpayers will end up paying for all of it, but that’s OK we’re paying for their cell phones so this can be added to those costs

Good for Governor Abbott and the state of Texas for taking action. Apparently the people in the WH who have round the clock protection and private security don’t care about the average American who pays their salaries. REMEMBER THIS WHEN ITS VOTING TIME

If Biden won’t go to the boarder bring the boarder to Biden. Wish this would have been done last year

Drop then off at the Capitol building with instructions on how to get to Pelosi’s and Schumer’s office. Take them to Joe Biden’s personal home and to any and all other leftist and radical’s home.

Why not send the illegals back yo Mexico border? If they go to DC the government will just disburse them back into our states! More wasted resources…

Why do we to be so blind that we cannot see.
I have read the Declaration of Independence over and over
As well as the constitution over and over
As I read and understand the constitution
We the people the citizens of America are the masters
And that makes president on down as well as government
Employees work for us
Therefore in America we are 325 million strong
When we wake up out of our deep sleep
And realize this
So what is to stop us from showing up at the border by the millions
And dare the illegal aliens to cross over
We have the right to defend our borders
When the government fails to do there constructional duty
And that also applies to Washingto DC
Masses of citizens showing up to Washington DC
Exerting our right to peacefully assemble and redress our greviences to elected officals
Peaceful assembly not violent assemblely and if they refuse our demands we the people have a right and duty to remove them
When they attempt to socialize and tryanize we the people
By the way we are a republic and not a democracy
A nation of laws which are absolute under our constitution
As a Christian I do not advocate harm
But realize that this is our country
Jesus is our lord and savior not Washington DC
To many people have sacrificed and died for our couny to not honor those sacrifices and deaths
As George Washington said I would rather die standing on my feet than bowing my knees to tyranny
Me to
What about you
