The city of El Paso, Texas, has approved $2 million to be spent over the next 16 months to send illegal immigrants to other cities.

On Sept. 12, the El Paso City Council ratified a services contract with Gogo Charters LLC for transporting illegal immigrants. The company has already received $411,000 from the city, Border Report said, citing a presentation to the council. Over 550 illegal immigrants who were released from the custody of federal immigration have been bused out of El Paso. Buses from Sun Metro, the public transportation provider of El Paso, have been transporting illegal immigrants to bus stations, the city’s airport, and shelters.
