“It will help us tailor our needs for migrants to provide reception services, respite services, meals, transportation, urgent medical needs, transportation to connect people to resettlement services and the like,” Bowser said at a news conference announcing the move Thursday. Leaders of those cities have complained that the busing is overwhelming their city services, particularly because Texas is not coordinating with them or giving them advance notice of when buses will arrive. Advocates and aid workers who support migrants along the border, meanwhile,that Abbott is actually providing people a useful service by offering them free and safe transportation to their final destinations.
His office unleashed a searing criticism of Bowser and the Biden administration after the announcement, labeling the mayor “an absolute hypocrite.”
