Municipal officials were told to expect up to 150 migrants per day prior to the governor\u2019s order.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think busing the released migrants to DC is a great idea,\u201d Mayor Laughlin told Breitbart in a Tuesday morning interview. \u201cLet them see [D.C. officials] what we are seeing and dealing with in Uvalde.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>On April 6, Gov. Abbott ordered the Texas Division of Emergency Management to prepare buses to transport DHS-released migrants on a voluntary basis from their drop-off location to Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo help local officials whose communities are being overwhelmed by hordes of illegal immigration who are being dropped off by the Biden Administration, Texas is providing charter buses to send these illegal immigrants who have been dropped off by the Biden Administration to Washington, D.C.,\u201d Governor Abbott said during a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2022\/04\/06\/texas-governor-orders-buses-to-transport-released-migrants-to-d-c\/\">press conference<\/a>\u00a0in Weslaco, Texas. The governor said the first drop-off location will be the U.S. Capitol steps in the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor McLaughlin told Breitbart his city officials were told by DHS to expect up to 150 migrants to be released every day into Uvalde. While the number released never hit that mark, it came to a stop completely about the same time as Abbott\u2019s busing order. He said the migrants apprehended by Uvalde Station Border Patrol agents are now being sent to Eagle Pass for processing and release.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Eagle Pass is already facing a large number of migrants being released into its city. In March, Breitbart <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2022\/03\/12\/exclusive-200-migrants-released-by-feds-to-ngo-shelter-in-texas-near-border\/\">witnessed the release<\/a> of a busload of about 50 migrants to an NGO shelter. The driver said he would be following three more busloads in the next hour.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Laughlin said he received intelligence revealing that nearly 500,000 migrants are poised on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande from the Rio Grande Valley Sector to the Del Rio Sector. He said the migrants are just waiting for the Biden Administration\u2019s ending of the Title 42 coronavirus protection protocol in May.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDHS is still releasing COVID-infected migrants into communities in the area,\u201d the mayor said. \u201cIn addition, we are dealing with criminal aliens \u2014 including sex offenders \u2014 police pursuits, and harassment of our residents by migrants moving through the area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The mayor said he is grateful for the governor\u2019s support on the issue of illegal immigration and how it impacts his town located about 130 miles from the border.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were having human smuggling pursuits nearly every day,\u201d McLaughlin told Breitbart. \u201cThe governor sent 40 DPS troopers into this area and shut it down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the pursuits are extremely dangerous because the human smugglers have no regard for anyone\u2019s lives. \u201cWe had smugglers driving over 100 miles per hour in residential streets,\u201d he explained. \u201cWe don\u2019t pursue them anymore in our city. It\u2019s just too dangerous. We follow them through the city and let the sheriff\u2019s office or DPS take over in the more wide-open spaces.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNFbc5T2NTdEL9_YFsQbXuOF3xOKVQ\"><em>Bob Price<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0serves as associate editor and senior news contributor for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNHrdMnYOa5wlYK9eCiMk9vHw1BGNg\">Breitbart Texas-Border team<\/a>.
