The sanctuary state of Massachusetts only has about 20,000 illegal migrants as opposed to millions in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, California, and Florida, but they are declaring a state of emergency.
Gov. Maura Healey has declared a state of emergency around the situation in Massachusetts’ shelter system, as a rapidly rising uptick of immigrants has strained state resources.
Nearly 5,600 families are currently housed in the state’s emergency shelter system, Healey said during a press conference at the State House on Tuesday morning.
This number is 80 percent higher than one year ago, she said.
The governor delivered an “urgent and formal appeal” to the federal government to “remove barriers and expedite federal work authorizations” and help fund new shelters.
Massachusetts is the only state in the country with a “right-to-shelter” law, which guarantees homeless families access to emergency shelter, reports CBS.
They want money. New York City Mayor Eric Adams is getting $100 million for illegal aliens so they want theirs.
They need to close the border, but, instead, they want money.
I got a very bad taste of leftism when I lived there 30 years ago. I can imagine how far left is it now.
Notice that the states which were involved in the American revolution are now all anti-American states.
She is not calling it an emergency in the sense that she wants migrants to stop coming.
No what she means is that Americans should do more for migrants, give more money ( more taxes) to migrants, make life easier for migrants, and that that cannot wait, that it must be done right now, that it is an emergency.
In other words, she does not see the US in an emergency, she sees the needs of migrants as the emergency.
Migrants first, Americans last is her message.
So true.
You are very right again.
The dems want more money, to facilitate the invasion.
This lady is making noise, she may want to seek higher office.
IN the last 100 years it seems that most Democratic politicians are fiscally irresponsible!
Leftists love to spend other people’s money
And control lives.
