The city of Los Angeles has recently approved sanctuary status for undocumented immigrants, yet is now reviewing legal action against the State of Texas after sending its twelfth migrant bus to the city. Texas has been at odds with Los Angeles over its sanctuary city status and has continued to send migrant buses regardless. Los Angeles city officials have raised concerns about the state’s tactics, citing safety concerns due to overcrowding, and have asked the state to provide other options. Texas has responded by stating that they will continue to send migrant buses, in accordance with their laws and views on immigration. The situation is causing further tension between the two parties and ultimately, how the situation is resolved could set a precedent for other sanctuary cities across the nation.
