Democrat leaders have been trapped by their own policies. Liberal-run cities and states have long claimed to be “sanctuaries” for illegal immigrants. That means, they won’t allow them to be deported, even if they’ve committed crimes.
With the border overrun under Joe Biden, tens of thousands of illegal aliens have ended up in Democrat-run states.
Liberal governors are overwhelmed by this crisis. They have slashed budgets to accommodate illegals—but that hasn’t been enough. One state begged residents to house migrants—but residents refused. Now, the governor is outraging locals with this one move.
From The Post Millennial:
A former Boston area veterans’ housing unit will be turned into an illegal immigrant shelter as the city says it has no more room to house the new arrivals.According to Fox News, the former Veterans Home at Chelsea, which Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey said was set to be demolished after the creation of a larger veteran’s center on Powder Horn Hill, will become a “safety-net site.”
The governor of Massachusetts will convert a shelter for veterans to become housing for illegal aliens. The shelter was going to be demolished, as a larger veteran’s center was built. But instead of using this facility to help American citizens, it will house hundreds of migrants.
Democrats in the state claim their “system is at capacity.” They do not have the resources, space, or funding to take care of the many migrants coming in. The federal government appears unwilling to provide additional funds to deal with this situation (despite demanding more money for Ukraine).
Biden has yet to secure or shut down the border. Nor has the federal government begun deporting illegal aliens, even as millions enter the country.
Democrats are unwilling, it seems, to admit they’ve done this to themselves. They are not demanding migrants to be removed from the country—which is the only clear solution to this problem. Some governors are trying to make migrants work, but few of those coming in appear willing to work.
They were told that if they came to America, they would be given free food, housing, etc. Democrats are at their wit’s ends dealing with this crisis. Yet they refuse to do the one thing that will end it immediately.
Key Takeaways:
- Massachusetts will convert a veteran’s shelter to house hundreds of illegal aliens.
- This comes as Democrat leaders refuse to call for the deportation of hundreds of thousands of migrants.
- Democrats are slashing budgets to provide more resources to illegal aliens.
