Greg Abbott buses migrants back to Texas-Mexico border under new executive order

Texas Governor Greg Abbott cleared state authorities to return any illegal migrants they apprehend to the border, with a new executive order he signed last Thursday. Monday, the first major migrant bust under Executive Order GA-41 took place with over 70 migrants who illegally crossed the border into Eagle Pass, Tex., being returned to port of entry.

A Fox News report that aired Monday showed footage of more than 70 migrants who illegally crossed the southern border into Maverick County's Eagle Pass being ushered onto two large buses to be sent back to the border, where Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has to deal with processing.

According to the Center for Immigration Studies, the Biden administration has released over 756,000 illegal aliens into the United States, so it's likely that some may still end up being let into the country, while others will be deported under Title 42, the Trump-era policy allowing the US government to turn away asylum-seekers.
