New York, Chicago mayors urge Colorado Gov. Polis to halt bussing migrants to their cities

In a letter to Gov. Polis on Saturday, Chicago Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot and New York City Mayor Eric Adams wrote, “We respectfully demand that you cease and desist sending migrants to New York City and Chicago.”

"Our understanding is that Colorado purports to be a welcoming state. At least as far as we are concerned, whether a welcoming state or welcoming city, the leaders must make sure that those values are lived in good times and especially in challenging times. That is what we have done and we urge you as governor of Colorado to do the same. We know it is hard because we have been facing these challenges for the last nine months.

Before the first several busses took off from Colorado Wednesday morning, the cities told state officials directly that they did not have any room to accommodate the hundreds of migrants who have already arrived in Chicago and New York City from Colorado, according to a news release from the Chicago’s Mayor Press Office."We were notified [Monday] that the governor of Colorado is now stating that they are going to be sending migrants to places like New York and Chicago.

Jared Polis's hipocracy on full display.

How about shut the dam border and stop crying this is what you democrats caused!

LOL!!! What a hot mess these sanctuary cities have 🤦🏻‍♀️. I know y'all are trying to be nice but y'all are not ready (or organized enough) to take in so many immigrants. That's why we have laws that demand a process for immigrants to enter this country

Hopefully he doesn't listen to them.

LOL

Send them to Florida, georgia, Texas.
