Another bus carrying dozens of migrants from Texas arrived Saturday
afternoon at Union Station in downtown Los Angeles, courtesy of the
governor and taxpayers of the Lone Star State.

The 41 asylum seekers arrived about 12:40 p.m. and were received by the
L.A. Welcomes Collective, a network of nonprofit, faith and immigrant
rights groups, officials said in a statement. The migrants are from
Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Cuba, Venezuela, Belize and
Nicaragua.

"With great love and dignity, we extend a warm welcome to our newly
arrived brothers and sisters in Los Angeles," said Martha Arevalo,
executive director of American Resource Center-Los Angeles (CARECEN), one
of the groups providing resources and support.

A temporary welcome center was set up at nearby St. Anthony Croatian
Catholic Church.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said in a statement that her office learned
about the bus Friday and immediately began coordinating with the
collective, as well as with city and county departments, to assist the
migrants upon their arrival.

"The City of Los Angeles believes in treating everyone with respect and
dignity and will do so," Bass said.

The migrants were recently paroled by the Border Patrol and voluntarily
boarded the bus in Brownsville, Texas, for the 1,600-mile journey,
officials said. This is the second bus to arrive from the Texas-Mexico
border in just over two weeks, after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced Los
Angeles as the latest Democrat-run city to which his state will bus
migrants.
