Chicago Receives Another 50 Migrants Sent By Bus From Texas
(Bloomberg) -- Chicago received another 50 migrants bused from Texas on Sunday, the second group to arrive in less than a week.
The migrants were mostly families and the city is working to figure out where they come from, Mayor Lori Lightfoot told reporters late Sunday. She slammed Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who made cracking down on immigration a prominent part of his re-election campaign, for treating people like “freight.”
This is the second group to be dropped off in Chicago, after the first 75 migrants arrived at Union Station late Wednesday. Texas isn’t coordinating with the City of Chicago, where government officials are working with non-profits and other organizations to get any information on potential arrivals.
“We have yet to hear from anyone in an official capacity from Texas,” Lightfoot said. “It’s unacceptable, we are talking about human beings’ lives, who themselves have gone through an incredible journey just to get to the United States. I think the decent human thing to do is to cooperate and collaborate.”
