    Austin is a “Sanctuary City” so if Abbott really wanted to shit on that idea he’d be sending them to Austin. But he isn’t, he’s sending them across multiple state lines which is human trafficking if the article is correct in stating they received temporary legal status when they were received in California.

    Let me be clear as a former Texan, Abbott could lead the way in immigration because, yes, Texas could in fact absorb them and find temporary homes for them. Instead he’s committing to political theater for an issue he’s failing to address in his own state.

      If that is human trafficking then every bus picking up illegals in Texas and taken them to the dozens and dozens of other places is also human trafficking.
