"Mayors Call for Federal Action as Migrant Crisis Strains City Budgets Across the US"

Texas Governor Greg Abbott's strategy of busing migrants to sanctuary cities has forced a shift in the Democratic Party's approach to immigration. Facing an unprecedented number of border encounters, Abbott's policy has been criticized as a political stunt, but it has also highlighted the strain on resources in both border towns and destination cities. Democratic mayors have called for more federal support, and the Biden administration is taking steps toward immigration reform and border security funding. The situation has put Democrats in a difficult position, potentially affecting their stance on immigration ahead of the 2024 elections.
