South Dakota Gov. Noem Says State Won’t Take Illegal Immigrants
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem signaled on Wednesday that her state will not accept illegal immigrants that the Biden administration are looking to relocate into the interior.
“South Dakota won’t be taking any illegal immigrants that the Biden Administration wants to relocate. My message to illegal immigrants… call me when you’re an American,” Noem wrote in a statement on Twitter.
Her comment comes as media reports that the Biden administration is reaching out to numerous states for assistance on housing illegal immigrants amid the burgeoning crisis at the southern border. The Washington Post has also reported that the Biden administration is considering flying migrant families and children to states near the Canadian border for processing.
Long Beach is ready to house immigrant children. But are they in over their heads? Cindy Carcamo
When the White House called Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia last week to ask if his city would help house unaccompanied immigrant children recently arrived at the U.S.-Mexico border, he didn’t hesitate.
It was personal for Garcia, who emigrated with his family from Peru to the U.S. at 5 years old. The 43-year-old up-and-coming progressive politician empathized with the immigrant children and wanted to help the Biden administration avert a humanitarian crisis.
“Absolutely,” the mayor replied.
Garcia, who chairs Long Beach City Council meetings, supported the move to lease the Convention Center to the federal government and convert it into an emergency shelter for up to 1,000 immigrant children. But leasing the city-owned center requires City Council approval.
