So California does not deal with the problem. Hey asshole, you just stated that most illegal immigration comes from people who come here and overextend their visas.

They fly in New York or Los Angeles, and not Birmingham, Alabama.

As for Texas Arizona and New Mexico, maybe it is their policies that create the problem. Texas is a cesspool when it comes to poverty, education, crime, and healthcare. Maybe it is red state policies that are the problem.

it's great what Texas is doing, sending unwanted immigrants to NYC. what you probably don't know is that NYC is currently working on a plan to send busloads of imprisoned violent felons to Texas. we get who they don't want and they get who we don't want. sauce for the goose, etc., it's a win win!

Experts said it’s important to take a step back and note the underlying factors that push people out of their countries and why the U.S. — regardless of who’s president — has trouble handling their arrival.
P - Persistent corruption, poverty, lack of opportunity and violence in Central America drive people to leave their families and seek a better life in the United States. Recently, hurricanes in Central America made things worse for many people, ruining their crops and displacing them from their homes. The coronavirus pandemic has also left many people without a job.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection commissioner said Gov. Greg Abbott isn’t coordinating with the agency as Texas sends migrants far from their immigration proceedings.

But Magnus said Abbott is making CBP officials’ jobs more difficult by moving migrants so far from their immigration proceedings and not coordinating those moves with the federal government.

"As individuals await the outcome of their immigration proceedings, they are legally obligated to report in for the next steps in their immigration process and permitted to travel elsewhere,” Magnus said. “CBP’s close partnerships with other government and non-governmental stakeholders are essential to this effort, and to ensuring fairness, order, and humanity in the process.”

Abbott says he is bussing to force change in Immigration policy. You tell us, conix, how Republicans have performed on that score.

None of here are surprised you would describe the Abbott stunt, which makes immigration officers
work more difficult, as brilliant. 'Brilliant move on the Governor's part." After all he is a Republican.
