And I'm pretty sure it was illegal to ship them immigrants elsewhere under false pretenses too...but hey it was a "brilliant move", right?  Really helped DeSantis with his Presidential run too.

Anyway:

Meanwhile the Senate has a bipartisan bill to really do something about the perceived problem.

But republicans, led by their new speaker, refuse to even vote for it in the House.

Maybe Abbott should take issue with them and do something that works on the problem instead of trying to make political points.

The Speaker of the house has an immigration bill also, sent to Schumer and he failed to vote on it. Why?
