Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took to social media to suggest Texas Gov. Greg Abbott step down after orchestrating the transfer of dozens of immigrants to Washington. The New York Democrat, who has also been a recipient of immigrants after Abbott moved some to her state from Texas last month, claimed the continued busing shows the governor is “struggling” to run his own state.

Maybe you should think about whether this is the right job for you,” he concluded.
