Texas has bused and flown more than 100,000 migrants out of state as part of Gov. Greg Abbott's "Operation Lone Star" border initiative.
Since the first bus of migrants was sent out-of-state in April 2022, Texas has bused and flown more than 103,100 migrants to six cities in an effort to "to fill the dangerous gaps created by the Biden Administration's refusal to secure the border," according to Abbott. More than 37,900 migrants were sent to New York, followed by 31,500 to Chicago, 16,300 to Denver, 12,500 to Washington, D.C., 3,400 to Philadelphia and 1,500 to Los Angeles, according to Abbott.
