WATCH: Beto O'Rourke calls Greg Abbott busing migrants out of Texas a 'political stunt'
Beto O'Rourke pushed back against a decision by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to bus migrants who arrive at the Texas border to Washington, D.C., calling it a"political stunt."
"This is another political stunt that Greg Abbott has pulled off that has done nothing to improve the safety and security of Texas or the rest of the country," O'Rourke said during an interview Sunday with MSNBC's Jonathan Capehart.O'Rourke also called into question the deployment of National Guard members to Texas's border with Mexico as part of Abbott's border security enforcement operation introduced last March.
Four Texas guardsmen serving or set to serve under"Operation Lone Star" have died by suicide since the National Guard was activated, according to the Army Times. "I think it is time to end Title 42. I don't think we should've ever implemented it. It is a cynical reading of U.S. Law that again has done nothing to improve public health or safety." @BetoORourke on if he thinks it's a good idea for the Biden Admin. to end Title 42 #SundayShow pic.twitter.com/fNQQqfotAj
