(SNews) – Democrat-led Massachusetts is calling on residents to house illegal border crossers in their homes as the state’s homeless population continues to swell.
Soaring numbers of illegal aliens are adding to the already stretched homeless crisis that’s impacting blue cities across the country.
Massachusetts’s Democrat Gov. Maura Healey (D) is calling on residents with empty bedrooms to begin welcoming illegal aliens into their houses and apartments.
The calls come despite the fact that illegal aliens knowingly broke the law when they crossed the Southern Border, expressing an apparent disregard for legal boundaries.
“Massachusetts officials are seeking residents willing to host newly arrived families in need of shelter,” WBUR reports.
“Hosts are asked to provide a room or apartment for a few days until longer-term accommodations can be arranged.
“A significant portion of the families in need of housing in the state are new immigrants.
“Many of those arriving in Boston have fled violence in Haiti and traveled through other states before coming to Massachusetts.”
Healey’s plan to house border crossers and illegal aliens in residents’ private homes comes as the state is paying for nearly 40 hotels and motels across the state to house new arrivals.
The expensive plan is all being funded by taxpayers.
As Boston Herald columnist Howie Carr notes, Healey has not sent border crossers and illegal aliens to nearly any of the “millionaire destinations” in Massachusetts.
Wealthy residents in Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, Cambridge, or Newburyport won’t be pressured to house illegals.
“The Healey administration has released a list of the 28 cities and towns where it is spending millions on hotels and motels for thousands of handout-demanding illegals arriving from the Third World,” Carr writes.
“Oddly, however, almost all the ultra-affluent suburban communities most loudly committed to celebrating diversity have thus far been unable to provide suitable free housing for the new non-working classes.”
Today, about 316,000 illegal aliens reside in Massachusetts.
