Migrants have been sent by bus for months to Washington, D.C. from Arizona and Texas. Authorities say some 4,000 migrants have arrived to D.C. so far.
Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser has requested that military troops be deployed to help with what is being called a"humanitarian crisis" in the city after authorities in Texas and Arizona have been sending migrants by bus into D.C. for months now.
Earlier this year, Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced that his state would begin chartering buses to send migrants to Washington and other"sanctuary cities."
