A contractor hired by Texas to bus migrants signed an agreement that bans them from talking to New York officials, the Associated Press reported.
Manuel Castro, commissioner of the New York City Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs, told the AP that complicates efforts to meet and provide resources for migrants being sent from Texas.
"It's a problem because we don't know when the buses are coming, how many buses are coming, if anyone on these buses has medical conditions that they will need help with, if they need a wheelchair,"Castro told the outlet. "We at least want to know that so that we can best help people as they arrive."
Volunteer groups rely in tips for help as they wait for hours in New York's Port Authority for buses from Texas to arrive.

The AP reported that so far about 8,000 migrants were bused from Texas to Washington D.C. and another 2,200 were bused to New York City.
While some migrants told the AP they were grateful for the help they received to reach East Coast cities, the New York Times reported that the influx has meant that the volunteer and non-profit groups helping these migrants have been overwhelmed, and many migrants are ending up in homeless shelters.
In a statement to the AP, Abbott's office dismissed criticism of the lack of communication.

Understand? You’re dreaming.
I just hope a fraction of them see he slanted reporting for what it is, the hypocracy of the left and suffer the consequences of the illegal invasion.
And CWII rages on with all the clueless people living in their normalcy bias having no idea what a modern war looks like.
The headline says busses were hired by the Governor but the article says they were hired by the State. So which is it?
Sloppy writing betrays sloppy thinking. Similar to the “reporters” who don’t really care whether President Trump personally packed up his own boxes and shipped them off to Florida.
Democrats are so easy……
