Massachusetts has dispatched a team of officials to the southern border in Texas to dissuade migrants in federal custody from traveling to the state, according to a new report.
Staff from Gov. Maura Healey’s (D-MA) administration are heading to four Texas cities, Brownsville, Hidalgo, McAllen, and San Antonio, to meet with migrants, federal law enforcement, and nonprofit groups to express concerns that shelters up north are at capacity and cannot accommodate more migrants, according to a statement shared with CBS News Tuesday.
