Washtenaw sends strong message to immigrants with $145K aid fund

ANN ARBOR, MI - Washtenaw County is sending a strong message to all immigrants to let them know they're welcome here.

And they're putting money behind that message.

The County Board of Commissioners voted Wednesday night, May 17, to give final approval to three resolutions that lay out new county policies related to immigration matters and dedicate taxpayer funds to help immigrants, including those targeted for deportation by the federal government.

Regardless of citizenship or immigration status, county officials say, everyone should feel comfortable making contact with county government, including the Sheriff's Office, whether that's to report crimes or access services.

And for those who want help on the path to citizenship or need other forms of aid, including emergency assistance or legal aid for those affected by federal immigration enforcement actions, the county is vowing to help.

The resolutions were approved 6-1 with Ruth Ann Jamnick, D-Ypsilanti Township, opposed and Jason Morgan, D-Ann Arbor, and Alicia Ping, R-Saline, absent.

This includes illegals, of course. Thank God I no longer live in the People's Republic of Washtenaw County dominated by the wackobirds of Ann Arbor, but at least my old township has some sense still. Tawn Beliger is one of the good ones in Northfield Twp.

How wonderful. Taking taxpayer money to make the new arrivals feel welcome. Going to provide them with machetes to chop heads off? Baskets to hold the heads?
What a bunch of f*ckheads.

Don’t they realize that there are family members waiting YEARS to legally immigrate and join their legal relatives here? It took 10 years to bring some of my wife’s siblings, and that process started about 16 years ago. I cannot imagine the wait time now.

And we didn’t need no steenking public aid money - had to file an affadavit guaranteeing support until they became citizens or had worked 10 years.
