Texas Sends Migrants to LA Amid Tropical Storm Hilary, Sparks Outrage
TL;DR
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is facing criticism from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass after a bus carrying migrants was sent from Texas to Los Angeles during Tropical Storm Hilary. This is the ninth bus sent to L.A. from Texas since June 14. Mayor Bass called the move "evil" and accused Abbott of endangering the lives of vulnerable migrants. The bus arrived in L.A. with 37 asylum seekers, including 16 children, who were provided with humanitarian support services upon arrival. Abbott has been organizing the buses due to the overwhelming number of immigrants crossing into Texas from Mexico.
