Abbott Halts Migrant Buses From Texas to Illinois, But Not Because of Pritzker’s Whining – By Karen Townsend (Hot Air) / Jan 17, 2024
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has halted sending buses of illegal aliens to Illinois. It isn’t a reaction to Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker’s plea to Abbott to stop sending buses to his sanctuary state. The pause is temporary.
Don’t be alarmed, my pro-bus to sanctuary cities friends. This action is due to weather conditions. It is definitely not Governor Abbott going soft on moving illegal aliens out of Texas and accepting the claims of hospitality leaders of sanctuary cities and states profess. The reason for the pause is due to road conditions. The roads are bad in winter weather. Despite what Abbott’s critics say, he is not going to do anything that might endanger the illegal aliens. Or the bus driver. The reason wasn’t because it’s cold in Chicago in the winter.
A spokesman for the Texas Division of Emergency Management, Seth Christensen, told Axios, “”The Texas Division of Emergency Management does not answer to the governor of Illinois, but rather to the directives of the governor of Texas during a declared disaster.”
