‘Sanctuary’ State Governor Tells Illegal Immigrants Not To Come: ‘Lack Of Shelter Space’
Immigration,Border Crisis,Sanctuary Cities
The governor of Massachusetts deployed state officials to border communities to warn illegal immigrants not to go to her state because the migrant shelters are already full, according to a report from Politico.
Democratic Gov. Maura Healey is sending five state officials to several Texas communities from Sunday through Wednesday to inform non-governmental immigration organizations and other border officials that her state’s emergency system is too overwhelmed and cannot accept any more migrant families, according to Politico. The actions come despite state and local policies that largely qualify Massachusetts as a “sanctuary” jurisdiction.
