Migrants and an advocacy group in Denver decried the city's new Asylum Seekers Program that offers six months of free housing, calling it "insufficient" and "offensive" despite the mayor cutting the city's emergency budget to accommodate the migrant surge.

The sanctuary city has been struggling to stretch its limited resources to support the growing number of migrants making their way to Denver. More than 40,000 migrants have found their way to the city since December 2022, more per capita than any other U.S. city – at a total cost of around $68 million, the New York Post reported.

Last week, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced that his city's migrant program would now provide what he called "a long-term, sustainable response" to address the migrant "crisis" locally. The program will offer six months of free housing, food assistance, workforce training and more to the roughly 1,000 migrants currently in the city’s shelter system as they wait for authorization to work, according to the New York Post. Due to the federal asylum seeker law, it can take up to 180 days to obtain working authorization.

if they don’t appreciate 6 months free living on the American taxpayers,
they’re definitely not the kind of productive, self-reliant people we want in this country

I say let’s give them another free ride on the USA taxpayers, a free ride home back to Krapistan or where-ever. One way, of course.

Three years ago, when I used to “buy houses for cash” in the wealthy enclaves just southeast of downtown, there were probably a hundred of those virtue signaling yard signs. Today, they are surrounded by Bidenvilles. I’m curious how many of those “NO PERSON IS ILLEGAL” signs are still out now.

The irony is that the Democrat base of takers is exactly what the "Newcomers" are before their replacements arrived at their insistence. They demanded their own problems. Always do.

The epiphany is coming. Who will they then blame?

Why don’t these illegal defense groups take out of their own pockets to pay for the needs of those self-invited guests who are undesirable for the majority of citizens?
