That these are bogus asylum seekers.
(Being from Ukraine or Somalia or a poor country or a high-crime country does not make one a refugee. It makes one a war-victim, a crime-victim etc…)
Like the people who report false alarm fires and people who file false claims of rape or racism such bogus asylum seekers are not only breaking the law, they are specifically harming the legitimate victims of such crimes.
That Chicago, and California, and Maine etc. are free to do whatever they want, but what libs do when they get a free hand shows us what libs would do when they get a free hand. (I have yet to see on any of these threads a lib say "well we would never do that on a national level, Feel free to elect libs. You need not fear us doing that beyond the borders of Chicago and California and Maine.
Hou do not believe these “asylum seekers” are being persecuted because of “race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.”
Neither does the government in Maine.
You know these claims are false.
Pollical policy based on feigned stupidity? (Should I say ignorance?")
Really? That’s the best argument you’ve got?
Call-in a false fire alarm, get a free car.
Make a false claim of racism, get free healthcare.
File a false rape claim get a free house.
Your ideology has completely left the realm of rational support or rational analysis.
A quick Google search shows story after story showing that the migrants coming to America over the last three years are not legitimate asylum seekers.
We are just stuck with all of them because the America last president Joe Biden’s policies are so stupid that or system has been overrun and hearings are now being scheduled in 2031.
Meh. That’s not how the people of Maine roll. You’re either old enough to spend half your time down in Florida or you spend the other half up at camp. The population is far from fluid up here.
And Maine’s homeless Americans and Veterans are receiving how many of these freebies?
Funny OAN doesn’t mention anything about labor shortages in Maine or Ukrainians. Only that “migrants” are having trouble finding housing.
Gov Abbott needs to send more Ukrainians to Maine?
The State has programs to help with that. Albeit they can do more. One of my tenants is a house painter who gets assistance from the State for rent because he is a veteran.
The stats are part of this article.
Homelessness is a growing problem in Maine. A lot of it has to do with the lack of housing. One of the problems is that the housing stock along the coast… where the population and jobs are… has been eaten up with vacation rental. That is a problem that they are trying to solve but they are just going to create a larger mess imo.
Additionally, it would add to the competition for scarce jobs and drive down wages. Moreover, the repeal of employer sanctions will inevitably add to our social problems and place an unfair burden on the poor in the cities in which most new immigrants cluster — cities which are already suffering housing shortages and insufficient human needs services.
