Chicago mayor accuses Greg Abbott of attacking country by busing illegal immigrants

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson accused Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) of “attacking our country” as the governor continues to bus illegal immigrants that come across the border to sanctuary cities such as Chicago.

“The issue is not just how we respond in the city of Chicago. It’s the fact that we have a governor, a governor, an elected official in the state of Texas that is placing families on buses without shoes, cold, wet, tired, hungry, afraid, traumatized,” Johnson said.

When the illegal immigrants get to Chicago, the Democratic leaders of which have promoted as a sanctuary city, they bolster problems that are already hurting the city.

“They come to the city of Chicago, where we have homelessness, we have mental health clinics that have been shut down and closed,” according to Johnson.

“You have people who are seeking employment. … The governor of Texas needs to take a look in the mirror of the chaos that he is causing for this country.”

What Abbott is doing is affecting far more people than the population of Chicago, Johnson said.

“This is not just a Chicago dynamic,” he said. “He is attacking our country!”
