And now it’s official, the State of Michigan's is asking residents to house and support them. State of Michigan asks for volunteers to help house migrants By Fox 2 StaffPublished February 19, 2024 1:55PMFOX 2 Detroit The Office of Global Michigan is looking for resident volunteers to house migrants in their homes and help integrate them into US society. The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Development says residents who participate must make a 90-day commitment. As part of the refugee support program, residents are asked to help with relocation needs due to the border crisis, and make a home in the state. Residents are asked to meet the person or family at the airport, helping find housing, enroll children in school, and help with finding employment for adults as part of the Welcome Corps. "The Office of Global Michigan’s goal is to make Michigan the home for opportunity for our immigrant, refugee and ethnic communities," said Poppy Hernandez, Michigan’s Chief Equity and Inclusion Officer and Director of the Office of Global Michigan. "With expanded refugee resettlement pathways, everyday Michiganders can provide refuge and build a state where people are welcomed with open arms." Other ways to help sponsor an individual or family through the CHNV program for Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, or Venezuelan Nationals. Residents can also sponsor an individual or family from Ukraine. Also available is Michigan's Ambassadors and Allies program, to "become an ambassador and share your sponsorship experience in the community," while "allies and recruiters can support by being welcoming, recruiting, volunteering, donating, or mentoring refugees. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

Big Gretch has the Governor’s mansion in Lansing, a summer residence on Mackinaw Island if I remember correctly, a personally owned vacation house in the T.C. area and probably a personally owned primary residence.

I wonder if our Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State or the Secretary of Labor here will step up to the plate?

Maybe one day we will figure out those pesky root causes that Kamala is tracking down. At theis point the only conclusion I can draw is that it's definitely not caused by granting voting rights; work permits; providing drivers licenses; giving out $10,000 prepaid cards; free housing; free medical; tuition assistance; or the wheelbarrows full of cash we are giving them. No way in the world those actions could lead someone to believe they are welcomed to violate our laws and cross the border without proper paperwork. If we just figure out those root causes the problem will pretty much solve itself. Why must they be so damn illusive? Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

No more asking, we're in crisis. It should be more of a draft. Known Democrat voters should be selected through a draft system and assigned an illegal. They will then be fully responsible for them. Jail time for neglecting them, and financially responsible for any criminal acts. | |||

Mayor of Denver laughs off optics of taking work away from Americans or legal workers in order to give to the illegals. All while blaming Republicans for his actions. That's not a bad look at all, I'm sure your citizens are thrilled to hear their neighbors are without work in order to give to the 'migrants'. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

^^^^^^ And since it’s an hour cut and not a layoff I’ll bet they can’t get unemployment either. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A. The Michigan Madman) | |||

ITs clear to me that the Biden Administration is doing everything in its power to move Obama from WORST PRESIDENT to SECOND WORST PRESIDENT. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||
