Ryan King, Cami Mondeaux - 7h ago

More than 100 migrants were bused from Texas to Vice President Kamala Harris's residence in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, with many praising the process of being bused further into the country as being “very good.”
Two busloads of migrants were dropped off by a metro bus stop near Harris’s home in the Naval Observatory on Thursday after Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) approved the move earlier this week. At least one of the migrants, Wazir Khan, agreed with the move, saying he was told his final destination will be New York.

Khan arrived in the district on Thursday after traveling from Venezuela, he told the Washington Examiner. Khan traveled to the United States because of economic struggles, describing his arrival in Washington, D.C., as “very good.”

Several of the migrants who arrived on Thursday came from Venezuela, Columbia, and other South American countries on a 38-hour bus ride that left Texas on Tuesday around 4 p.m., officials told the Washington Examiner. As they were transferred on the bus, they were given appointments for immigration court hearings over the coming months. It’s not clear where the migrants will be staying in the interim.

Volunteers arrived at the Naval Observatory shortly after the buses arrived on Thursday, telling the Washington Examiner they were unaware migrants would be dropped off at that location. Groups had been waiting since 6 a.m. at Union Station, where buses have been dropping off migrants since April.
Groups are planning to take the migrants to a local church to feed them breakfast and offer them resources that will help them travel to their final locations.
Mayor Muriel Bowser was unaware the buses would be dropping migrants off at the vice president’s residence. The city is working to mobilize its newly created Office of Migrant Services to respond to the migrant arrivals, a spokesperson for the mayor’s office told DC News.
