Healey said the emergency declaration directs local officials to utilize "all means necessary" to secure housing, shelter, and health and human services to address the "humanitarian crisis."

State officials had issued a call for host families last month, a plea repeated Tuesday by Lt. Governor Kim Driscoll, according to Boston 25 News. "Most importantly, if you have an extra room or suite in your home, please consider hosting a family. Housing and shelter is our most pressing need and become a sponsor family."

Healey said the state is spending around $45M a month to help assist these families.

is Martha's Vineyard still a sanctuary?

Only in name. When DeSantis sent 50 "migrants" there they got them off the island as fast as possible.  As usual when it cones to stuff like this the loudest voices are usually NINBY's.

$45m /mo.

That's peanuts. I'll bet Kommieforniastan spends that per WEEK! And Arizona, New Mexico, as well as Texas... at least double that amount.

So excuse me while I tell a Northerner I have ZERO fucks to give,  pay yer fuckin' maintenance like the rest of us, and be happy ya elitist piece of shit!!

Yeah that's us. Elitist. I'm a high-school grad blue collar worker. Wife's a secretary. We've worked hard and earned every fucking thing we own. I'll call your comment for what it is.
A steaming pile of bovine excrement.

It's not that easy. I mean, who hasn't tried to convince their wife that you need a live in "nanny" from south of the border. Didn't work before, not gonna work now!

Musta struck a nerve or sumfin!



So... why should all of us in the Southwest HAVE to take the full brunt of the problem? Why can't each state take 1/50th of the problem? How about you pay/suffer your fair share and be happy about it?

Everyone who voted for this should be required to take one family in. Imagine that, all 81million voters could take in A LOT of illegals.

Remember a 10 billion dollar wall was too much money.

Right now New York is paying 9.8million/day or about 300million/month or 3.6billion/year.

"A distinctive odor"   

Jesus Said. "Give a man a Fish and He will eat for a Day . Teach a man to Fish In Mexico and He will eat for a Lifetime."

If The countries these poor people are seeking Asylum from are sooo Bad why are we giving them Money??

And why are we funding the Countries that are Not giving assistance to them instead of letting them just pass through to Us.?

Why should We not trade The Brittney Griners and  persons who Believe the United States to Be Abhorrent on a fair trade one for one.?

I'm sure our new "Migrants would be less Anti American."

"Win Win"!!!

THIS!

Not only was $10,000,000,000 (or whatever it was) too much money, but reforming and/or ACTUALLY ENFORCING current immigration policy made WAY too much sense and would have been WAY cheaper. The BILLIONS Kommieforniastan spends on illegal aliens alone is staggering. Between the incarceration costs, court costs, educational costs, medical care costs, etc... just an eye watering amount of money. More than some nations' GDP.

Governor Healey's solution to the illegal immigration problem in Massachusetts is so very easy to solve.

Every family that voted for her or Biden has to take a family in...

Let the people who voted for this crap support it themselves.

But they won't... they want everyone else to pay the bill, not them.
