Texas governor expands migrant busing campaign to include Philadelphia:

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said Tuesday that he sent the first busload of illegal immigrants to Philadelphia, adding it to the list of sanctuary cities that he believes should feel the pain of the Biden border surge.

He said the migrants will arrive at a downtown railroad station Wednesday morning.

Philadelphia joins Washington, New York and Chicago as destinations for migrants the Biden administration catches and then releases into Texas.

“Until the Biden Administration does its job and provides Texans and the American people with sustainable border security, Texas will continue doing more than any other state in the nation’s history to defend against an invasion along the border, including adding more sanctuary cities like Philadelphia as drop-off locations for our busing strategy,” Mr. Abbott said in a statement announcing the move. --->READ MORE HERE

Texas sends first migrant bus to Philadelphia as Gov. Greg Abbott targets sanctuary cities:

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has sent migrant buses to Chicago, New York City and Washington, D.C., in recent months

A bus carrying migrants departed Tuesday from Texas and is expected to arrive in Philadelphia, the latest city targeted by Gov. Greg Abbott as a drop-off point for illegal immigrants in an effort to bring attention to the Biden administration's border policies.

Abbott has already sent hundreds of buses with illegal immigrants to Chicago, New York City and Washington, D.C., in recent months.

"Since April, Texas' busing strategy has successfully provided much-needed relief to our border communities overwhelmed by the historic influx of migrants caused by President Biden's reckless open border policies," Abbott said in a statement.

"Until the Biden Administration does its job and provides Texans and the American people with sustainable border security, Texas will continue doing more than any other state in the nation's history to defend against an invasion along the border, including adding more sanctuary cities like Philadelphia as drop-off locations for our busing strategy," he added.

The migrants will be dropped off at the William H. Gray III 30th Street Station in Philadelphia on Wednesday morning, Abbott said.

"Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney has long-celebrated and fought for sanctuary city status, making the city an ideal addition to Texas' list of drop-off locations," a news release from the governor's office said. --->READ MORE HERE
