Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced that charter buses full of illegal aliens will be sent to Washington, D.C. instead of simply languishing in Texas. This move comes after the Biden administration has signaled the end of the Title 42 directive that came about under the Trump administration. That particular rule stated that border agents were able to immediately expel migrants who came from a country with a highly communicable disease present – which clearly refers to “the” virus. This rule has been invoked some 1.7 million times since it was implemented back in 2020. Although Title 42 was not the ultimate tool to repel illegal aliens, it was most certainly something that agents used whenever they could. Now that the rule is being phased out, illegal immigration will simply surge. This puts a tremendous strain on the resources of border towns and cities in Texas.
