New York and Chicago are not the only cities in America that are overflowing with illegal border crossers. In Detroit, there are so many people arriving that the city’s shelters are full.
Activists in the city are now calling on residents to take illegals into their homes.
Political leaders have tried this in other places, like Massachusetts. It doesn’t work. It’s awful for the government to ask this of people. The tax paying residents didn’t cause the problem, Washington did.
Joe Biden’s border crisis has sent so many illegal border crossers to Detroit that activists are calling on members of their community to step up to house them in their private homes.
The African Bureau for Immigration and Social Affairs — an NGO that settles and cares for African migrants trying settle in the U.S. — is heading up the effort to find places for illegals to shelter in the Motor City. The group’s founder, Senegalese native Seydi Starr, told the Detroit News that Detroit has been working since last year to implement a support network for illegals. And this year the crisis is worse than ever.
“We’ve been calling on administrators. … We have seen the lack of supportive services for that specific community primarily working with Black immigrants,” Starr said, according to the paper. “… We have been working to secure the understanding that these people are here, and something needs to be done about it.”…
“Community members have been picking people off the street and taking them into their own homes. Whether it is a Senegalese community, Mauritania folks, Haitian, whoever,” Starr said, “Some people have 12, 18, 20 people in their homes.
This is a potential disaster. Detroit tends to get pretty cold in winter.
Sanctuary Cities on the Brink: Democratic Mayors Navigate the Unprecedented Migrant Surge Challenges
In a joint effort to address the escalating influx of migrants arriving in their cities, the Democratic mayors of three sanctuary cities, namely Chicago, New York City, and Denver, have issued a collective warning, asserting that their metropolitan areas are rapidly approaching a breaking point. The surge in arrivals from the southern border has prompted urgent concerns about the cities’ capacity to cope with the humanitarian crisis.
New York City Mayor Adams expressed these concerns during a virtual news conference, alongside Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Denver Mayor Mike Johnston. Mayor Adams emphasized, “We cannot allow buses with people needing our help to arrive without warning at any hour of day and night.” He added that the crisis, which had been kept from hitting the streets for several months, has now reached an unsustainable point due to the sheer volume and numbers of migrants.
The Democrats‘ solution to their open border crisis is to spend more money to disperse illegal migrants into the country and support sanctuary cities. That will only incentivize more to come. The solution is to seal the border and stop the flow.
In response to the pressing situation, Mayor Adams issued an executive order, compelling all charter bus companies to provide a 32-hour advance notice regarding the arrival of migrants. According to Adams’ office, over 7,000 individuals have entered the intake system in the last two weeks alone, with an estimated 157,600 migrants arriving since late spring.
Mayor Johnson of Chicago echoed Adams’ sentiments, emphasizing that the city has reached a critical point where immediate and significant intervention is essential. He noted that local economies are ill-equipped to handle such a crisis, stating, “We are literally building a system as we go along.”
Mayor Johnston of Denver concurred, highlighting that his city has experienced more migrant arrivals per capita than any other city in America. In a joint press release, the mayors labeled the situation a “humanitarian crisis” and urged all levels of government, including federal partners, to provide assistance and ensure migrants are treated with dignity and humanity.
The Palestinian influx into the US has already begun.
