The migrant problem in Chicago is bad, bad, bad. And the Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, is making it worse, worse. Day-by-day, by bus and airplane, Governor Abbott has been sending migrants from the Mexico-Texas border to Chicago, and he’s promising to continue sending them until, he says, President Biden secures that border. Chicago is a sanctuary city, now preparing for migrants in addition to the more than 30,000 migrants Governor Abbott already has sent our way. Never minding that Texas is the nation’s wealthiest state that easily can afford to care for migrants. There are more billionaires living in Texas than in any other state of the United States. Elon Musk of Texas is worth $240 billion, and members of the Texas Walton family, who own Walmart, worth $260 billion. They are able, comfortably, to help. But the governor of Texas would rather send us migrants than money. If you’d like to e-mail or write to the governor, he’s Greg Abbott, in my opinion, a bad, bad guy.
