Texas Sends Busloads Of Migrants To Chicago For First Time Abandoned At Train Station

Two buses carrying immigrants from Texas arrived in Chicago on Wednesday night. The buses arrived at Chicago’s Union Station around 7:30 p.m., carrying immigrants who crossed the southern border illegally. It is estimated that the buses were carrying 80-100 people, including 20-30 small children. Many of the migrants said they were from Venezuela. Chicago is the latest city to receive immigrants from Texas, after New York and Washington, DC, which all have Democratic mayors. Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott said in a statement that he looks forward to seeing Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot welcome immigrants, as Chicago is a sanctuary city. “President Biden’s inaction on our southern border continues to endanger the lives of Texans — and Americans — and shatter our communities,” Abbott said. “To continue to provide much-needed relief to our small, marginalized border towns, Chicago will join other sanctuary cities Washington, DC and New York as an additional drop-off location. Mayor Lightfoot is passionate about supporting her city’s responsibility to welcome all regardless of legal status, and I look forward to seeing that responsibility in action as these immigrants receive resources from a sanctuary city with the capacity to serve them.” A statement from Abbott’s office said Chicago is being added as a “drop-off location” for future migrant buses in response to “President Biden’s open border policies that are crushing border communities in Texas.” A spokesman for Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s office said in a statement that Abbott is “without shame or humanity.” “As a city, we are doing everything we can to ensure that these immigrants and their families can receive shelter, food and most importantly protection. This is not new; Chicago welcomes hundreds of immigrants to our city each year and provides the needed help,” said a spokesperson for Lightfoot’s office. “Unfortunately, Texas Governor Greg Abbott is without shame or humanity. But since he enacted these racist deportation practices, we have been working with our community partners to prepare the city to accept these persons. New York’s Democratic mayor Eric Adams, during his meeting with immigrants on August 7, said Abbott’s actions were “appalling”.
