A Gimmick? Abbott Proposal to Bus Illegal Aliens to DC is ‘Voluntary’ - Texas Scorecard
In order to board a taxpayer-funded bus or flight to the nation’s capital, an illegal alien must volunteer to be transported.
So I now will judge this whole "effort" based on the NUMBER OF ILLEGALS DELIVERED TO DC.
No points for talk. Points given for action. Only.
They didn't have any problem walking to the border.
I often wonder how all of those immigrants managed to walk hundreds or thousands of miles with enough food and water to sustain them along the way. How did they keep their cell phones charged. Are the roads lined with human excrement and urine? Just curious what the logistics of it are.
Certainly one can question the timing of Abbott's proposal, being that it's an election year. As far as the fuel cost? How much do these 'illegal aliens' cost the state of Texas in say a month? I have to believe it costs more than gas.
Are you really implying that the US Government does not provide food water and shelter for illegal immigrants? Do you not watch TV and have you not seen the encampments and motel rooms provided? Maybe EBT was the wrong word, substitute free food instead! Still a huge burden on all small cities and the border states.SNAP/EBT and most welfare programs have never been authorized for illegal aliens and only very few non-citizens. As for legal immigrants, as a class they use welfare benefits at a lower rate than citizens
Is there fraud in that system? Sure, most of which is enabled by the various charitable orgs.

Yes and I had to laugh just a little when several of those who had agreed to the bus trip said that the reason they came to DC was to get closer to Miami...DeSantes is planning to bus them to DelawareThe first busloads have arrived in DC. So much for just talk and no action. Still is kind of a publicity stunt. At least they can mooch off the DC libs.
