New York City Mayor Eric Adams sent a delegation to the southern border on Tuesday as Texas Governor Greg Abbott continues to bus undocumented immigrants from Texas to the Big Apple.

The “fact-finding” delegation met with Border Patrol officials in Eagle Pass, Texas, one of the most popular border crossing points for migrants.

“We’ve sent members of the team down on a fact-finding mission to hear directly from folks on the ground along the southern border and get the real answers we’re not getting from Texas, including whether they are sending asylum seekers to New York City even if they prefer to go elsewhere,” press secretary Fabian Levy said in a statement.

Governor Abbott has sent more than 7,400 migrants to Washington, D.C. since April, more than 1,900 migrants to New York City, and around 100 migrants to Chicago in an effort to push back against the nation’s immigration policies.
