Los Angeles city and county agencies are responding today to a busload of immigrants that arrived in downtown Los Angeles from Texas, the fourth to come to Union Station since June 14.
A bus of migrants that originated in Brownsville, Texas arrived early Tuesday at Union Station, the second in six days, Mayor Karen Bass’ office reported.
“The city has continued to work with city departments, the county, and a coalition of nonprofit organizations, in addition to our faith partners, to execute a plan set in place earlier this year,” Zach Seidl, Bass’ director of communications said in a statement.
“As we have before, when we became aware of the bus yesterday, we activated our plan.”
The bus arrived around 6:30 p.m., Seidl said.
