Michigan is asking residents to help house migrants in their homes and help resettle them into society as the crisis at the southern border continues.

The state Department of Labor and Economic Development said volunteers who wish to participate must commit for at least 90 days as part of the refugee support program.

"Programs like the Welcome Corps advance the Office of Global Michigan’s mission to make Michigan the home for opportunity for our immigrant, refugee and ethnic communities," said Poppy Hernandez, Global Michigan Director and Michigan’s Chief Equity and Inclusion Officer. "Expanded refugee resettlement pathways empower more Michiganders to support our state’s growing refugee population and build a more welcoming and inclusive Michigan for all."

please consider hosting a family.

And when their stay is done, good luck getting the squatters to leave...I doubt local law will be much help.

Let her house some migrants up at the Governors cottage at Mackinaw Island. After a few B&E’s and assaults during the upcoming tourist season, I doubt Michiganders will have the stomach to continue this program.
