LinkLinksOpinion Washington Post Editorial Board: Mayor Bowser needs to take action on migrant buses coming to D.C. By Editor On Jul 26, 2022 Last updated Jul 26, 2022 70 Share Since April, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, both Republicans, have bused more than 5,000 undocumented immigrants to the nation’s capital to score political points against the Biden administration’s immigration policies. The governors have bragged that giving Washington a taste of the problems border communities confront would unnerve “big city East Coast mayors.” But far from being overwhelmed, D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) has largely sat on her hands, arguing that the migrants are a federal issue. That inaction further victimizes vulnerable people and fuels the success of Mr. Abbott and Mr. Ducey’s political stunt. It’s time for Ms. Bowser to provide more concrete leadership. 70 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
