Opinion | Arrival of bused migrants can't be Muriel Bowser's problem to solve

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : "C'mon Bowser, take one for the team?"Local jurisdictions such as D.C., New York City and state capital leaders in Austin and Phoenix can help address the needs of people coming across the southern border.
44% : But ultimate responsibility must rest with a federal government that created the policies and rightly supports international agreements giving those arriving at the U.S. border the right to request asylum without being criminalized or turned back.
25% : On one front, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, both Republicans, have been busing asylum-seeking migrants from the southern border to D.C. on the grounds that the Biden administration's immigration policies encourage waves of arrivals that are too burdensome and expensive for their states to handle.
