Ryan Grim and Emily Jashinsky react to Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser asking The National Guard to step in after busloads of migrants were sent to the nation’s capital by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R-Texas).
FILE – Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser speaks during a news conference March 15, 2022, in Washington. Two Republican border-state governors who are investing billions of dollars on immigration enforcement and hours at the podium blasting the Biden administration policies have found two unlikely allies: Democratic mayors Bowser of Washington, D.C., and Eric Adams of New York. The mayors’ recent overtures for federal aid is a response to Texas and Arizona busing migrants away from the border, a months-old practice that has been long on political theater and short on practical impact.
