I am totally against sanctuary cities and the open border, but I would want any innocent child that winds up in my kids school to be welcomed and nurtured.
I don’t know why folks think I’m mad at these poor kids. Maybe it’s my fault for being unclear but my issue is not with the families/kids that are being uprooted every 4-6 months and relocated.
My gripe is with the city/state/fed for not providing additional resources for the school to accommodate.That is where my frustration is. As of right now, there’s been no additional resources allocated to an already strained situation.

I believe I mentioned that in the other thread about the migrants when this all started. The state makes deals with various hotels and only then notifies the city or towns. When they inquire as to whether or not the state will provide compensation for the added burden on the schools, they get no commitment. You know what that means.

What already strained tree do you suppose that the city/state/fed shakes to get the additional resources?
$77 million. For migrants. From a budget running out of money for Medicare. The same budget wherein 14 cents of every dollar is being paid simply toward interest on borrowing. It's lunacy.

How better to bankrupt the country, which is the plan?
The DHS press release regarding this money actually crows about "providing unprecedented resources". It appears to be some form of mass insanity. Interest on the national debt is projected to grow from 1.9% of GDP in 2022 to 6.7% in 2053.
We are hoping to go to MA this summer. One of my cousins and her husband bought a house on the Cape. She plans to have a family gathering in late summer. Since I follow the threads here, I've learned that at least (maybe more?) one hotel in Yarmouth is now filled with "migrants".
This has me wondering if we will be able to find a decent hotel should we attend the gathering. They will be living on the western end of the Cape near the bridges.
Does anyone know how long they're keeping "migrants" in the hotels? If they still are in hotels when we plan to visit, would it be difficult to find a decent hotel for ourselves? Thank you in advance for any info.

Wasn't Healey's budget close to a billion just for the people in the hotels and shelters?
