Massachusetts officials ask residents to lend a 'helping hand' and offer migrants 'an extra room'

Massachusetts officials are asking residents to consider opening their homes to migrants as the state contends with an alarming number of migrants overloading the shelter system.

Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll asked state residents Wednesday to open their doors and assist housing migrants after the Democratic governor, Maura Healey, declared a state of emergency Tuesday as the state is faced with a vast shortage of shelters.

"Most importantly, if you have an extra room or suite in your home, please consider hosting a family. Housing and shelter is our most pressing need and become a sponsor family," Driscoll said.

The Constitution only says they cant make you quarter Soldiers, as I recall. Could they try and force this? How many people you think gonna sign up for this to get immigrants to take advantage of, or other nefarious scams/things. Do/would they qualify as dependents?

I expect fewer people will comply than showed up for the photo op at Martha's Vineyard before they shipped them all away...

Let me Nostradamus this...
The cronies will be reimbursed by the state for housing thousands of "guests".
Later an investigation will uncover that there is no record of anyone actually being housed, only names on lists.
The matter will be dragged out long enough that it just fades away from public attention, maybe by a fresh shiny object.

Just put the "17-year-old child" with gang tats, a paunch, and a receeding hairline on the lower bunk bed below your daughter. It'll be fine, guy!

How many of these government heads have taken in illegal immigrants into their personal abodes?

I am honestly surprised ol gov holcombe isn't trying to volunteer camp atterbury for the illegals

Lots of big houses on Martha's Vineyard, they should start there. The governor really needs to ask for a whopping sales or gas tax to pay for the migrants, nobody in that state is going to stop pulling blue levers.

No I’m sure the people that broke the law when they snuck in are going to follow the law from here on out.

Never heard that. But holcombe was all excited when we had to house all the "refugess" at atterbury.

Came to post this. Them first. Leaders lead by example right?

See, that's the thing. They're not supposed to be "leaders". They're supposed to be "representatives" and public "servants". Too many of them think they are indeed leaders.

 

[NyleRN]

See the thing is that you can still represent and serve and still be a leader.
