Refugee status in Texas “working well” for the underpriviliged of New Orleans.

According to Barbara Bush when interviewed on NPR (audio here):

What I’m hearing which is sort of scary is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.

“And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this–this (she chuckles slightly) is working very well for them

Well that answers a few questions I had anyway. There I was thinking they’d miss their homes and way of life.
