New Texas departures now make an unexpected turn as hundreds of migrants have reportedly arrived in New Jersey over the last few days.
On Saturday, four buses of migrants arrived at the Secaucus Junction train station in New Jersey in what Mayor Michael Gonnelli described as “unexpected consequences.”
“It seems quite clear the bus operators are finding a way to thwart the requirements of the executive order by dropping migrants at the train station in Secaucus and having them continue to their final destination,” Gonnelli said in a statement.
All the buses were from Texas, reports DallasNews.
Gonnelli called the tactic a “loophole” bus operators have found to allow migrants to reach New York City, and added that state police have reported that “this is now happening at train stations throughout the state.”
Gonnelli vowed to work with state and county officials and to “continue to monitor this situation closely.”
A message posted on a social media account for Jersey City said the city’s emergency management agency reports that “approximately 10 buses from various locations in Texas and one from Louisiana have arrived at various transit stations throughout the state, including Secaucus, Fanwood, Edison, Trenton.”
About 397 migrants had arrived at those locations since Saturday.
“This is clearly going to be a statewide conversation so it is important that we wait for some guidance from the governor here on next steps” as buses continue, the post said.
“New Jersey is primarily being used as a transit point for these families – all or nearly all of them continued with their travels en route to their final destination of New York City,” said a spokesperson for New Jersey Governor Murphy.
“We are closely coordinating with our federal and local partners on this matter, including our colleagues across the Hudson.”

While we’re saddened to vacate our current home, we are so excited to stay nearby and in a beautiful new bookstore.”
Many booklovers who have been visiting the area for years now have expressed their disappointment on social media.
“I never thought I’d see the day B&N left that amazing location in downtown Naperville. It’s so sad.”
“This is a huge loss for Naperville. Downtown will never be the same.”
“Downtown Napes won’t be the same without y’all.”

“A short distance, lol. It’s a 25-minute drive from the old location.”
“That’s not a short distance at all!”
