CHICAGO (WLS) -- Mayor Lori Lightfoot sent a letter to Texas Gov. Greg
Abbott on Sunday, asking him to stop busing migrants to Chicago.

As Abbott's administration plans to resume busing migrants through the
U.S., Lightfoot said Chicago is at maximum capacity for shelter space,
service and resources after welcoming more than 8,000 migrants since
August 2022.

Texas is expected to start busing migrants out of the state on Monday.
Lightfoot called the practice "inhumane and dangerous."

In her letter, Lightfoot also said nearly all the migrants who arrived in
Chicago were "in dire need" of food, water and clothing, adding that many
needed extensive medical care. She also said some migrants were in active
labor, and some were victims of sexual assault.

"None of these urgent needs were addressed in Texas," Lightfoot said.
"Instead, these individuals and families were packed onto buses and
shipped across the country like freight without regard to their personal
circumstances."

Lightfoot said she is sympathetic to the challenges that border states and
cities face, telling Abbott, "I would rather work with you than against
you," but called the situation "completely untenable."

"Chicago is a welcoming city, and we collaborate with county, state, and
community partners to rise to this challenge, but your lack of
confederation or coordination in an attempt to cause chaos and score
political points has resulted in a critical tipping point in our ability
to receive individuals and families in a safe, orderly, and dignified
way," Lightfoot said in her letter. "We simply have no more shelters,
spaces, or resources to accommodate an increase of individuals at this
level, with little coordination or care, that does not pose a risk to them
or others."

Lightfoot's full letter to Abbott:
"To Governor Greg Abbott,

Talk to Biden you stupid cunt.
