WASHINGTON (TND) — Leaders of several American cities are sounding alarm bells that they've now reached a breaking point.

"We're here today because we really don’t have a choice," said Gov. Maura Healey, D-Mass., Wednesday after touring a recreational center in Roxbury, Massachusetts ahead of immigrant families' arrival.

But she is facing pushback from residents there, for converting it into a migrant shelter.

"We sympathize with them. We as people in our community, we love. But sometimes we love so much that we spite our own selves," Clifton Braithwaite, a community activist told WBZ.

Some are furious they could lose the facility for the next four months, which serves as a second home for senior citizens and neighborhood kids alike.

Meanwhile, it's all unfolding as residents watch other aspects of daily life grow more difficult.

We have schools now, teachers who have class sizes that are increasing, students that don’t have the supports to help. We have hospitals that patients are in the hallway right now," said Democratic At-Large Boston City Councilor Erin Murphy.
In an interview with Fox News Thursday, she said when hers and other cities were designated “sanctuary cities,” they may not have thought through how much support would be needed.

"There’s a concern that their local resources are going to be depleted so I think it’s shedding light on what it really means to be a sanctuary city," Murphy told The National Desk.

In New York City there are similar challenges, where a tent camp is growing by the day outside of the major shelter there.

"We don’t have anywhere to live and there’s no work," one man said.

It's a reality many advocates have criticized, including David Giffen, Executive Director of the Coalition for the Homeless.

It's insanity for the U.S. Government to welcome people from other countries into the United States and say, 'Come in, but by the way you can't work.' What are they supposed to do?
Questions about making ends meet also loom large for big cities.

Chicago has already spent more than $156 million to pay for migrants.

Denver has spent more than $40 million.

New York City has reported spending $2 billion, projecting $12 billion more if things don’t change.

Attack of the good thought Fairy. Virtue signaling maroons. It is easy spending other people’s money until it runs out and affects themselves. Stupid fecking democrats. Maybe their heads will pop out their arses now that reality has set in. Or maybe they will double down. Who knows with these dip shites.

Beijing Bidens 10 million illegals on top of the other 30 million illegals already here. 40 into 340 mil is 8.5. That means 1 in 8.5 people here is illegal as of right now. Democrats should be held accountable for this sedition committed on the republic. Something needs to be done. If the Democrats were able to give these foreign alien, invaders citizenship, the country would be over

Citizenship is coming, sooner than you think.

Just in time for the November elections.

No need to cheat the ballot box, just bring in your own voters. Oh look, transparent election.

They voted for it. Send them thousands. I love when liberals get exactly what they voted for. I just hope anyone moving to Oklahoma doesn’t vote that way. We already have a woke mayor and way too many liberal snowflakes moving here. Speaking of, welcome to black history month. Be sure to attend one of the many celebrations that emphasize division based on the color of a person’s skin.
We are all Americans. Come here legally, obey the law, respect each other, or find a country that will take you.

Got no sympathy.

Come election time, dems will finally do something, then take credit for addressing the problem, that they themselves created. And the worst part is, that libs will eat it up and vote dem again, because it was Trumps fault to begin with. Oh, and climate change, for the children, cow farts, blah, blah, blah.
