Greg Abbott began to bus illegal aliens and asylum seekers from Texas border towns to Chicago and New York. After all, Abbott reasoned, these two mayors were constantly bragging about how welcoming their \u201cSanctuary City\u201d policies were, so the Texas governor thought it was time those Democrats began to put their money where their mouth is.<\/p>\n<p>As expected, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and New York Mayor Eric Adams began to scream bloody murder. Lightfoot referred to Abbott\u2019s policy of busing illegals to Chicago and New York as \u201cinhumane.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/chicago-mayor-lori-lightfoot-slams-texas-gov-abbott-man-without-morals-sending-migrant-buses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">She said Abbott was<\/a> \u201ca man without any morals, humanity or shame.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The poor dear almost got the vapors she was so very upset.<\/p>\n<p>But Abbott isn\u2019t the only governor upset at Joe Biden\u2019s immigration policies \u2014 or, more accurately, the lack thereof. Colorado\u2019s Democrat Gov. Jared Polis has also been busing asylum seekers to New York City and Chicago to relieve the strain on his state services.<\/p>\n<p>As you might expect, that went over like a lead balloon, and on Saturday, Lightfoot and Adams sent a very polite letter to Polis asking him sweetly to cease and desist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe respectfully demand that you cease and desist sending migrants to New York City and Chicago,\u201d Adams and Lightfoot wrote in a letter to Polis. \u201cSince December of 2022, Chicago and New York City have received hundreds of individuals from Colorado.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not exactly a whine, but at least they didn\u2019t refer to Polis as \u201cwithout morals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2023\/01\/07\/nyc-chicago-colorado-asylum-seekers-00076900\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Politico:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"story-text__paragraph\" data-content-child-index=\"0-1\">The two mayors wrote that they wanted to work with Polis in pressing the federal government for a national solution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text__paragraph\" data-content-child-index=\"0-2\">\u201cYou must stop busing migrants to Chicago and New York City,\u201d the mayors wrote. \u201cIn the case of family reunification, let us work together to ensure that people are reconnected with their loved ones, however sending migrants to our cities whose systems are over capacity, where they may struggle to find shelter and other services is wrong and further victimizes these most vulnerable individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-text__paragraph\" data-content-child-index=\"0-3\">The letter comes days after Adams <a class=\"js-tealium-tracking\" href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/amp\/news\/2023\/01\/04\/eric-adams-criticism-colorado-asylum-seekers-00076423\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-tracking=\"mpos=&#038;mid=&#038;lindex=&#038;lcol=\">laced into the federal government and Polis <\/a>over the number of asylum seekers arriving in the city.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-content-child-index=\"0-3\">Lightfoot also called Abbott\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&#038;rct=j&#038;q=&#038;esrc=s&#038;source=web&#038;cd=&#038;cad=rja&#038;uact=8&#038;ved=2ahUKEwibp9aOu7j8AhUyAzQIHSCvCY0QFnoECCAQAQ&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.texastribune.org%2F2022%2F08%2F31%2Ftexas-migrant-buses-chicago-lori-lightfoot%2F&#038;usg=AOvVaw0a9tuTR6GU0bQULaSAUCk0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> busing strategy \u201cracist\u201d<\/a> because, well, she said so; that\u2019s why.<\/p>\n<p data-content-child-index=\"0-3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.texastribune.org\/2022\/08\/31\/texas-migrant-buses-chicago-lori-lightfoot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Texas Tribune:<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"t-copy t-links-underlined t-align-left\">Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot\u2019s office called the practice of busing migrants \u201cracist,\u201d but affirmed the city\u2019s commitment to welcoming the new arrivals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"t-copy t-links-underlined t-align-left\">Abbott\u2019s busing strategy has so far cost the state of Texas <a href=\"https:\/\/www.texastribune.org\/2022\/08\/31\/texas-12-million-migrant-busing-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more than $12 million<\/a> before Chicago was announced as a destination.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So Abbott\u2019s strategy of busing asylum seekers to Chicago is \u201cracist,\u201d but Polis\u2019s policy of busing asylum seekers to Chicago isn\u2019t racist? My head hurts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is apparent that the influx of asylum seekers has provoked consternation amongst states. Although we share the concerns of accommodating the flood of asylum seekers, overburdening other cities is not the solution,\u201d the mayors said in the letter.<\/p>\n<p>No one wants to \u201coverburden\u201d cities. Governors like Abbott and Polis just want a little consideration. New York City and Chicago were getting only a trickle of asylum seekers until Abbott began to make them feel the burn of what it\u2019s like to be in the path of a human tsunami. If those two big city mayors \u2014 and a popular Democratic governor like Polis \u2014 can\u2019t get Biden to pay attention, no one can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last summer when the surge of illegal aliens at the Texas border was overwhelming towns like El Paso, Gov.
