The ongoing controversy of busing migrants from Texas to Chicago.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has refused to stop sending migrants to Chicago, despite Mayor Lori Lightfoot's plea to halt the action. Abbott told Lightfoot to take her complaint to President Joe Biden, laying the responsibility for an ongoing border crisis at his doorstep. Abbott has sent border migrants to other cities, saying so-called sanctuary cities should have to grapple with the plight of border towns. The end of a Covid-era rule is expected to affect not just border towns but also cities deep in the heart of the country.
