Montana and Wyoming aren't voting for the open borders and lax refugee requirements, Massachusetts is. They should go to the states that voted to let them in the country in the first place.

Looks like reality is hitting these migrants who've been staying at the Days Inn in Methuen. If only there was some way to make them aware of this before they all came here! "But it hasn’t been the ideal white-picket-fence situation for them." Jean-Francois said he was always told the U.S. was a place of “safety” that “took care of people.”

More migrants are arriving.....this time they're being offloaded in Framingham! https://www.wcvb.com/article/framing...ilies/44744838 asylum jefe, asylum! I wonder how all the folks who overbid on homes there in the last couple years feel about this? Like these folks who just paid $100K over list! https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2...65984769_zpid/

^^^^This

MA has declared itself to be a sanctuary jurisdiction for illegal aliens and so-called "migrants". That's why so many of them are ending up in the state.

I believe Massachusetts is not a sanctuary state, but has a number of sanctuary cities/towns.

No one in MA voted for "open borders", nor do we have them. Talk about needless inflammatory rhetoric...

Uh...it's resources and infrastructure. You realize the combined population of those 2 states? The entire state of Montana did not have a Level 1 trauma center till this week.

I think the point here is that people are P*ssed off about the amount of migrants coming here and taking up space at hotels, on the roads, in our healthcare system/schools etc. How many more should we expect?

Certainly agree, it's not ideal. NYC is bursting at the seams too.

Overpopulated MA also does not have infrastructure to accept so many migrants.

In May ERs were overwhelmed, now hotels and other places. All in state which has housing crisis for population already here.
It is unfair for poor folks in this state. Why should state resolve issues of migrants first?

If there are people that can house them it is fine, but apparently not enough of those.
