State Denies Request To House Migrant Kids At Southbury
Hartord Courant ^ | July 15, 2014 | Keith Phaneuf

Posted on 07/16/2014 7:50:28 AM PDT by NEMDF

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's administration has denied a request from federal authorities to temporarily house up to 2,000 migrant children from Central America at the Southbury Training School.

The state Office of Policy and Management wrote in an email Monday that its concerns about the aging school's condition, the sensitive nature of caring for the developmentally disabled clients already there, as well as several legal and procedural hurdles, prevent Connecticut from assisting.

KEYWORDS: aliens; illegalimmigrants
More at the link. If the feds are saying that they estimate 90,000 so far this year (children only), then you have to think that the number is probably closer to a half million. They probably thought CT was an easy mark for housing them.

I now see that this is a duplicate post of a thread from yesterday. Please delete, and I apologize. My initial search used “Connecticut” instead of “state” for the first word.

Maryland told them to keep looking. They were not taking any. I find it interesting that the Blue states are the states saying “no”. I wonder if this is just a ploy to help turn red and purple states blue. I do have my suspicions.

Isn’t it odd that they seem to want to resettle these alien kids all over the country?

Why are they wanting to scatter them all over the country?

Why are congressmen and other elected officials not being told of plans to resettle them in their communities?

Why are congressmen and other elected officials being banned from the alien camps? Why aren’t our elected officials allowed in there, to see what is going on?

It is worth repeating. Shows the fellas in the Blue States don’t want any White Hispanics in their neighborhoods.
Did the same thing in Albany NY, except the Fed said the facilities were not adequate ... probably want to build a Casino near by, or they were too close to the city’s south side inner city housing, or too close to the bedrooms of the Cuomo Administration Hierarchy.
Hope someone is keeping track of all these Blue State NIMBYs.

Judging from the unrest in Chicago over this, I’m guessing liberal leaning states are taking steps to avoid riots.

i know! i think if anywhere, they should go to the blue states, and more specifically, the North Eastern blue states... Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, the ritzier parts of New York and DC... it is easy to "be for" something when you are not touched by it... let these bleeding-heart yuppy liberals live with illegal immigration in the their neighborhoods...

if you wanted to occupy America wouldn’t you do it this way?
State by state, small town by small town

Focus on facilities in those precincts that are “conservative” in their voting to bust up the resistance
Turn the Catholic Church into a domestic a refugee agency and soak up their money
Turn military bases into refugee camps and use DoD money to run them

eventually use martial law to break the resistance of communities who defy federal plans, call the protests “hate crimes” and use full force of federal armed power to counter the citizen resistance

No kidding....why hasn't TX Gov Goodhair Perry told them the same thing....to take their illegals and send them back?!

Instead, he's allowing them to be put up at a $50M resort in Weslaco, TX.

I’m shocked to learn my Gov. Dannel P. Malloy hates “refugee children” - who’ a thunk?

Southbury is a small town with many wealthy residents. The feds shouldn't have picked a town that has so many political connections. Southbury and Newtown are similar towns that border each other. Both towns have huge mental health facilities that are mostly empty. I can already see the headline calling for those buildings to be demolished.

Very prescient! Unfortunately it is very easy to see your predictions coming true.

WOW! What a leftist rag is the Hartford Courant. Read the last few paragraphs. Note the lack of political affiliation of the elected officials mentioned.
