time to follow through on this. this is beyond embarrassing

Your take is shaped by tweets from Citizen Free Press, a New York Post reporter, and some random right-wing twitter account who mostly just posts about "groomers"?

Here is what actual reporting on her statement looks like. It would require you to pay attention for 30 seconds though, so I've giving you about a 15% chance of reading it.

In a letter addressed to US secretary of homeland security Alejandro Mayorkas, Healey said: “To our partners in the federal government, Massachusetts has stepped up to address what sadly has been a federal crisis of inaction that is many years in the making.

“But we can no longer do this alone. We need federal partnership, federal funding, and urgent federal action to meet this moment and to continue to serve some of our most vulnerable families.”

The state has about 5,600 families in shelters – a sharp increase from last year’s 3,100. Another 1,800 or so families without homes are currently housed in hotels and motels.

The predicament is being exacerbated by delays in issuing work permits to people waiting for legal cases to be concluded within the immigration system. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the agency responsible for approving and renewing work permits, blames the delays on the Covid pandemic, which it said strained its resources and disrupted processes.

Other reasons for the emergency, Healey said, are “a confusing tangle of immigration laws” and “the lack of an affordable housing supply”, as well as a rise in the number of people coming to Massachusetts.

Massachusetts is the only state with a “right to shelter” law, which requires qualified families to be provided with immediate housing.

In the past, Massachusetts has seen migrants bussed or flown in from other states without those states making bilateral agreements beforehand.

The far-right Florida governor Ron DeSantis arranged for 50 Venezuelan migrants to be flown to the upscale tourist island of Martha’s Vineyard in September last year without notice, causing what local officials called an “urgent humanitarian situation”.

Many of these migrants alleged they were lured under false pretenses of safety and jobs, which had not actually been arranged – although many locals scrambled to welcome and provide for the sudden new arrivals after it happened.

Massachusetts governor declares emergency and urges help for migrants

Maura Healey calls on federal government to provide ‘urgent action’ as shelters housing migrants and refugees reach capacity

It looks like a relatively small # of people who could be assimilated with relatively simple measures, but a mix of Covid, beauracracy, and failures to address affordable housing are preventing it from happening. But we're literally talking about just a few thousand families, around 1% of Massachusetts's population.

I thought Desantis was your GOAT politician that you were always on your knees for? I wouldn't have thought that Abbott talked about LGBT and groomers enough for your liking.

This is beneath you. Are right wingers demagoging and fueling this issue? Absofukinglutely. But this is becoming an absolute trainwreck for many Dem led governments. It's blowing up in a serious way here in Chicago. Black vs Brown, migrants vs long term residents, internal Dem conflict and exploding budgets causing city/states to cry out for federal help. Here the city has refused foia requests to show how money is being spent. Refusing even after state attorney general has said documents need to be provided to the media. Migrants centers being put in black neighborhoods using school buildings that were shut down. Will get worse before it gets better.

Why is it so hard for you guys to see the hypocrisy of all these Democratic mayors and Governors of sanctuary cities/states?

MA is my state and is one of the most liberal in the nation and yet when migrants show up on our doorstep, the same leadership that openly stated they are welcome now say that "actually we don't have the resources". The SAME EXACT THING that Texas and Florida and other border states have been saying for literal decades.

MA is one of the most expensive states to live in. We are a top 3 hottest housing market. We have so little space for "extra" people that these migrants are being housed at.....wait for it........ Logan Airport. Not in the hotels near it but in the fukking terminals. LOL @ blaming this on Covid.

The REAL immigration system has this thing called quotas. They are there for a reason....you know....like having the resources necessary to take care of these new immigrants.

abbott ethered the fukk out of eric adams it's not an opinion, it's a fact. he forced him to go on national TV, crying and begging for money. LITERALLY demonstrating that illegal immigrants are a burden, and that "sanctuary cities" are nothing but bullshyt liberal posturing

AquaTreh doesn't have facts to refute any of this, just emotional hand wringing. why the fukk should the federal government send NYC millions of dollars to house foreign nationals can you answer the question, without getting emotional?
