Denver has cared for more than 41,000 illegal immigrants over the past two years. The new migrant arrivals have sparked backlash and depleted city resources.
Migrants and a Denver advocacy group slammed the city's short term assistance program for migrants as "offensive," despite offering six months free rent.
With another 3.3 million immigrants expected to arrive in the U.S. in 2024, more American companies are using migrants to fill out their labor forces.
Denver's Asylum Seekers Program is being slammed as "insufficient" and "a slap in the face" even though it will provide six months of free housing, food assistance, workforce training and more to the approximately 1,000 migrants.
