How Texas Unleashed an Immigration Firestorm
The border and migration have become top issues of the 2024 US presidential election, with a Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll finding immigration second only to the economy on voters’ minds. It’s in large part due to a political gamble by Texas Governor Greg Abbott.
In April 2022, the Republican decided federal authorities weren’t doing enough about increased border apprehensions. So he directed the Texas Division of Emergency Management to charter buses to take people who entered the US illegally to northern cities, or as he calls them, “sanctuary cities.”
His tactics in part led to frenzied talks among Congressional lawmakers in late 2023, ultimately yielding a bipartisan deal. But the bill swiftly collapsed under pressure from Donald Trump, who said he didn’t want to hand a victory to President Joe Biden. We visited Eagle Pass, Texas, to see the situation first hand and examine how the issue might play into the 2024 presidential election.

He and DeSantis have been sending "advocates" over to the Mexican side of the border to find people to send into the U.S. None of these people are vetted.

@@ginahickman6864 1: 80% of the bill was to send money overseas. 2: The bill had clauses to still allow ~3 million migrants into the country annually 3: the bill wasn't necessary to secure the border since illegal immigration was lower under the previous admin until the new admin came in, and did away with the executive orders that helped secure the border according to an ICE director that testified before congress. The bill was weak, unnecessary, and primarily funding for israel and ukraine. If the Biden admin wanted to secure the border, they didn't even need a bill to do it as demonstrated by Trump's admin. You bought a lie, and the bill in itself was extorsion: "give money for foreign conflicts, or you get no 'border security'". Border security they could have provided at any time, but waited until an election year to pretend they want to do something. If it passed, they get money to send overseas and make a victory lap about how they "secured the border" when they'll likely continue to not enforce immigration laws. If it didn't pass, they could blame the opposition, and people like you would fall for it.

Biden did this, Abbott just wanted to share the love (and the cost) with the sanctuary cities
Immigration in the middle of a pandemic and wars overseas... yeah this is gonna create some problems. 🤔🤔🔥🔥

We’re witnessing the fall of an empire in real time….and it looks like it might be by design.
Save America VOTE FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP.
I'm very clear as an African American man in the U.S.A. who I'm voting for? Go Trump, Go Trump, 2024. In case I forget, Go TRUMP! No mas Sleepy Joe. Go TRUMP. 2024
Wonder of a state has ever sued a new company for flat out lying😂
They did not get a bill to close the border the bill allowed 5000 a day there's need to be 0 perday only at the port of entry should anyone enter

and on day two he said we have open borders and invited all illegals in
Can anyone tell me how this senate bill codifying 5,000 illegals a day into law would be something republicans could vote for?
TRUMP 2024 TEXAS HERE!
Wow, blame it on anyone except the administration responsible. Let’s go brandon

so you mean the Clinton administration......because that's where it all started with the 1996 IIRIRA bill.
My only wish is that Gov Abbott would have acted sooner. Still grateful Abbott is fighting back.

If the Illegals really were coming for Asylum..Legally they have to stay in the "First" Country by them that is safe 🦈
should look into who's hiring illegal immigrants and hold them responsible, but I'm guessing they're the biggest donors to both parties.

Yea, no they're importing a new voter base so the "81million" actually makes a lick of sense next time.

@@UFC_Buffalo it’s sad that you think so little of the border patrol. They’re following the laws ,made by Congress. Not following the rhetoric every 4 years of a propaganda machine or a candidate. I guess you don’t remember the “build the wall” rants then the republican congress and President did nothing. Just like today’s congress does nothing.
Asylum means the closest country from where you are fleeing. NOT choosing the country you wish to exploit its resources.
It would be different if you were bringing people over who actually want to work and have educations. Now they taking prisoners and gang members like it won’t become a problem
All these people want is a better life, but we cant afford that for them all. And definitely not as many as have been let in. Its Bidens doing

What a biased piece. Not the Republicans fault. All on Democrats. I voted for Biden in 2020 & regret it so much. Voting for the Republican candidate. Wished it was Vivek, but it’s not. Don’t care - will vote for Trump.
