By busing migrants to New York, Gov. Abbott is actually helping them stay in U.S., researcher says
at Syracuse University. The New York City courts, meanwhile, have approved 82 percent of asylum cases in that time, well above the national average of roughly 50 percent.
Abbott started busing migrants to D.C. in April in an effort to draw President Joe Biden’s attention to an unprecedented surge of migration across the southern border. Earlier this month, the governor expanded the busing operation further up the east coast to New York, which he called “the ideal destination for these migrants, who can receive the abundance of city services and housing that Mayor Eric Adams has boasted about within the sanctuary city.
The Houston courts are not the only immigration courts in Texas, but they are the biggest in the state and the most comparable to New York. Houston and New York are among the largest immigration courts in the nation and are two of six courts across the country that decide roughly half of the nation’s asylum cases.
