49% : Jenkins testified that more than 4,000 asylum seekers have presented themselves to homeless intake centers in the past three months, up from an estimate of 2,800 three weeks ago, and the 10% census increase at intake facilities since April has been "largely driven" by an uptick in migrants seeking asylum.

Greg Abbot for busing migrants from the southern border to local shelters without cooperating with city officials.
