Texas gov busing asylum seekers to NYC may unintentionally offer them stronger safety nets By Arun Venugopa |
|

The newly-arrived migrants are far more likely to have their asylum cases approved in New York City Courts than they would be in places like Houston, Dallas and San Antonio, said Austin Kocher, an assistant professor at Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), which analyzes federal government data. |
