"The state of Texas has spent more than $221 million ... to transport nearly 120,000 migrants to six “sanctuary” cities far north of the southern border [....]
Nearly all of the costs were picked up by the state’s 30 million residents"
221m/120k = $1841
I can fly DFW-JFK tom'w on AA, First Class, for $800. A coach seat or Greyhound bus both run ~$350
Abbott spent $1840
Looks like someone found a way to line their pockets by bussing migrants out of Texas
