The latest moves by Gov. Abbott and Gov. DeSantis have triggered outrage among immigration rights’ groups and Democrats who have accused the Republicans of engaging in human trafficking and treating migrants like “human cargo” to score political points
WASHINGTON — Gov.’s state-funded program to bus migrants to cities run by Democrats reached a national fever pitch on Thursday, with buses dropping people off outside of Vice President Kamala Harris’ D.C. residence.
“We did [send them],” Abbott said to Lubbock radio station KFYO. “She’s the border czar, and we felt that if she won’t come down to see the border, if President [Joe] Biden will not come down and see the border, we will make sure they see it firsthand. … And listen, there’s more where that came from.”But Abbott said his office was not responsible for the two chartered planes that carried approximately 50 migrants from San Antonio to Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday.
Venezuelan migrants stand outside St. Andrew’s Church in Edgartown, Massachusetts, on the island of Martha’s Vineyard, on Sept. 14, 2022.DeSantis’ office did not respond to a request for comment. Uvaldo Arcalla told a reporter he was in San Antonio in a shelter where four people slept in a room. He said they were told they would go to Martha’s Vineyard but didn’t get any concrete information like who would host them or what they would be doing there.Elias Erales Perche said he was in Texas for four days when someone told him he would get food and shelter on Martha’s Vineyard.
