Texas has bused 922 migrants from the border to Washington, D.C. through an effort that began in early April, Gov. Greg Abbott said in a Friday press release.
Since Abbott pledged to bus migrants to Washington on April 6, a total of 35 buses have arrived in the nation’s capital in response to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) announcement that Title 42 would end May 23, according to the press release. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is expecting to have to accommodate a surge of migrants, and is adding facilities to be able to hold 18,000 migrants at a time.

“We are sending them to the United States Capitol, where the Biden administration will be able to more immediately address the needs of the people that they are allowing to come across our border,” Abbott said when he announced the plan.
