Texas has spent more than $124 million sending buses of migrants to sanctuary cities, according to records obtained by Nexstar.
According to documents Nexstar obtained, Texas has paid $124,603,616.19 to bus more than 100,000 migrants from the state’s border communities to Washington D.C., New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia, Denver and Los Angeles as of Jan. 10. That equals out to 2,245 buses year to date, an average of 45 migrants per bus.
Nexstar obtained the documents through a public information request to the Texas Division of Emergency Management — the agency tasked with this initiative. The majority of the payments have been made to Wynne Transportation LLC, with a handful of payments made to Transportation Management Services Inc.
It’s not going to flip any local elections except the mayoral race. No one blames local council people for the actions of freeloading southern states. The money is going to come from the federal government because this is a federal issue. Obviously Republicans in the House do not want to pay the bills their friends in Texas and Florida created.
Mayor Adams however is not doing a good job lobbying Congress for this money. He’s also being investigated for campaign finance issues. The FBI or Justice Department already took his phones. Something about taking money from Turkish Universities or something weird. He actually had meetings with Congress to ask them for money and left to deal with his legal issues. Whatever.
