San Diego migrant center to close after influx of asylum-seekers drain funds: ‘Serious problem’

A San Diego migrant center announced it will be forced to close its doors Thursday after running out of funds to assist the overwhelming number of asylum-seekers who have illegally crossed into the county.

The mayor of nearby El Cajon, Calif., told Fox News Thursday that he fears the welcome center’s closure will quickly become a “serious problem” for his community.

“Over the past few months, we’ve seen 100,000 migrants come across the San Diego border,” Mayor Bill Wells told “Fox & Friends First.”

“A lot of those have been absorbed by this county shelter that used taxpayer money. They asked for $3 million and they spent over $6 million and now they say they’re out of money. So we’re going to see migrants congregating in our streets.”

“I think it’s going to become a pretty serious problem pretty quickly.”

I had sympathy for all the starving field mice around my farm. I had plenty of grain and so I opened my silos to feed them. Well, now I have no grain and I still have starving field mice. I don’t understand.

about 4 years ago SD started spraying the downtown streets because of diseases amongst the homeless. Look for more of this. The bill then was 10,000 a week.

I’ve been in Oceanside, CA for about 19 years The cops are good with homeless, IDing them when they first arrive. There are shelters and food. Cops try to keep them from sleeping at the beach and downtown and so forth,. the more that come across the border (35 miles south) the more will flow into Oceanside. All of SD county will be effected.
