[quote=Anonymous]He's pro-sanctuary county but anti-housing. So he's willing to welcome thousands of undocumented immigrants into Montgomery County, but doesn't want to build any more new homes? Where are they supposed to live? For the record, I don't have a specific position on either issue. It just doesn't make sense, mathematically. If you want to stop or slow growth, then don't lay out the red carpet for immigrants, especially if they are going to need taxpayer money to get on their feet. If you are pro-immigrant, then you need to have the resources to support them, and this includes housing and businesses. You can either be in favor of welcoming lots of new residents while increasing the tax base and building more homes and infrastructure to support them, or you can slow things down with moratoria and such. Pick one. You can't have both. You can't advertise your county as being favorable to new immigrants if you're not willing to support them.[/quote]
