Denver Declares Emergency As Migrants Overwhelm City

  • Denver’s Democratic Mayor, Michael Hancock, is getting a small taste of what small towns along the southern border are experiencing, and he doesn’t like it.
  • On Thursday Denver declared a state of emergency amid an influx of illegal aliens from the southern border.
  • “Let me be frank: This influx of migrants, the unanticipated nature of their arrival, and our current space and staffing challenges have put an immense strain on city resources to the level where they’re on the verge of reaching a breaking point at this time,” Hancock said at a news conference on Thursday.
  • “What I don’t want to see is a local humanitarian crisis of unsheltered migrants on our hands because of a lack of resources,” the mayor added.
