Why send them to DC and make them the burden of DC residents and taxpayers?

It's a federal issue, which takes action by Congress to do anything about it.

Don't you know that DC residents and taxpayers have no representation and no vote in Congress?

What’s the punishment? Welcoming hard working people who want to be here into our community.

Being a sanctuary city comes with responsibilities.

All that "sanctuary city" means is that the city does not enforce federal laws. And, it's not their job to enforce federal laws.

And that comes with responsibilities. I don’t get why you’re so opposed to immigrants.

By "responsibilities" you mean you feel DC should be punished - for not doing something that is not their job, but the federal government's job to do, and for which DC receives no federal dollars to do. And again, DC has no say in immigrant policy. We don't have a vote. If you want federal action on this, you need to send them to places that DO have a vote.

Were you not able to vote in the most recent presidential election?

You seem a little slow. No vote, no representation in Congress. As in, where things actually happen. The President does not have a free rein to do whatever he wants.

They are a burden to taxpayers already. Send them directly to DC, and blue states. You voted to have your tax dollars pay for this, and agreed to take on the burden with your vote for Biden.

We already had a border problem before Biden got into office, and no, Biden did NOT say "open the borders" and "we'll take everyone" and "we want to flood the US with foreigners" and all of the other inane things you've said.

So no, we did not vote for this.

Actually, he pretty much did by wiping away all the policies in place that were actually working. Then, announcing at the debates that people here illegally should get health care. And, then expanding Medicaid coverage to include people here illegally. Then, announcing that there would be no deportations the first 100 days of his presidency. Then, not deporting the masses as they cross into our country illegally.
And, he said he hoped migrants would "surge the border."

Well, they did.

When you send the message that illegal aliens are welcome here, they come.
You have Biden to thank for all the migrants who are here ILLEGALLY taking resources from others.

Really insane - they need to go back. America isn't taking care of Americans anymore. It's so wrong.

This poster is a second-generation American, and I'm guessing from a former Soviet country.

I would have never guessed so. SU had many different nationalities living together happily ever after. Most of us didn't run away from that. We just came because leaving a home and looking around the the world is a must.
And if we are talking about Central American nations then the Americas are their home. White man came and drew lines here. Not sure why they are not the Americans. While 500 years is a lot of time for a white man here, it's not for a European.
The two continents belong to the natives which many Lations are.

It isn’t. You are buying into a flimsy partisan narrative.

Nonstop immigration has always been his plan.

You mean unskilled, uneducated, illiterate illegal aliens from Central America?

I thought they all went to sanctuary city MoCo and CASA de Maryland for their welcome package, free housing and stuff. Send them there, not WDC.

Immigrants also have lower rates of substance abuse and drug use (Which often are the trigger event for homelessness), even after controlling for every other factor.

+1 religious and family oriented

What a romantic, idyllic notion applied to millions of economic migrants and situations.

Wanna bet?

The House Judiciary GOP launched an investigation into the gruesome rape and murder of a 20-year-old Maryland woman by an alleged MS-13 gang member who crossed the border as an unaccompanied minor.

On Jan. 15, as the letter notes, Aberdeen, Maryland, police arrested a 17-year-old "illegal alien" and known MS-13 gang member from El Salvador for the violent assault and murder of 20-year-old Maryland resident Kayla Hamilton. Press reports say the suspect entered the U.S. in Rio Grande City, Texas, as an unaccompanied alien child and identified a woman living in Frederick, Maryland, as his aunt.
