Kind of interesting how the illegal immigrants are encouraged to break the law but that attitude is expected to not bleed into the citizens who are expected to conform to government social agenda.
Migrants are given one year to decide if they want to naturalize or move to another nation. Sanctuary cities provide free housing for a portion of that time, dependent on budget. Current immigration law leaves hosting up to individual cities, without Federal mandates for participation. Sanctuary cities are at capacity, and are using a turnstile system to allow new migrants into housing as existing migrants leave.
The obvious solution is congressional immigration reform, which would increase Federal funding and provide migrants the right to assisted stay in places other than sanctuary cities. Congress failed to pass a bill.
POTUS can control detainment or turn away migrants at the border with the power of Executive Order. He cannot pass a new budget, or immigration reform.
What should Biden do?
Turn away, detain, or nothing and overcrowd sanctuary cities with homeless migrants?
I should have worded that differently. I’ll edit for clarity. Thank you for pointing it out.
Migrants are given one year of sanctuary to determine if they want to naturalize or move to another nation. The duration of free housing is determined by the budget of the sanctuary city.
This is great account of how NY is struggling with funding the housing they have committed to providing.
NY doesn’t want to kick them out on the street. They want Federal funding to support the billions spent annually on housing. That doesn’t come from POTUS. It requires congressional legislation.
But, don’t fear. As long as the current political trends continue, something tells me America might change its mind again… shortly after the new administration is inaugurated.
