Denver will cut hours at recreation centers, end in-person vehicle registration renewals and eliminate spring flower beds to save $5 million this year, a response to the migrant crisis that is expected to cost the city $180 million.
Mayor Mike Johnston on Friday blasted Congress for failing this week to pass a $118.3 billion bill aimed at stopping the flow of illegal entry at the southern border and making it easier for migrants who enter legally to get work permits.
About 40,000 migrants, mostly from Venezuela, have arrived in Denver over the past year, and more than 3,500 are living in city-funded hotel rooms. Thousands took bus rides to other American cities after arriving in Denver, and an unknown number are trying to stay in the city, find jobs and send their kids to school.
Denver has received more migrants per capita than any other city in the nation, the mayor has said.

That is an easy count. Next to zero crossing the boarder are family units.
FTA: “Denver has received more migrants per capita than any other city in the nation, the mayor has said.”
Good. Suck it up.
That’s about how they think.
“Also, does anyone really believe that Denver has received more illegal aliens than Texas or Arizona border towns? I have my doubts.”
Yeah; it was hyperbole.
“Reading between the lines he is saying, send more illegal immigrants.”
Reading between the lines he is saying, send more federal dollars.
Another reason not to settle down in Colorado. Leftist politics now illegal immigrant criminals.
“The word seems to have gone out the past two or three weeks from on-high. Suddenly, every article calls them “migrants,” even in the conservative press.”
Started years ago.
I’m not kidding. The Right should make every effort to pit the black people against the illegals.
The money the black people expect to go to them, citizens of the US is being wasted on lazy and criminal illegals. Violent gangs, pedophile rings selling children, home invaders and welfare leeches.
Get the ads and the talk show chatter going. Black versus illegal alien.
P.S. I have seen many families of Latino people in stores and can tell they are long time Americans with a father and mother working to earn for their children who are asking for more treats from the shelves as their parents push the carts. They should not lose taxes from their jobs in order to pay for illegals, either.
The uniparty gave city leaders an out to blame “congress” for the illegal immigration when it is 100% the fault of the Biden administration....which of course is the deep state along with the dems and gop.
La Raza...
They quit using “Illegal aliens” and switched to “illegal immigrants” or “illegal migrants.” Recently they have dropped all usage of “illegal.” The “No human is illegal” crowd has won.
Mike is a democrat. How about Mikey shutting the hell up?
I want the illegals to inch up to Fort Collins and disturb the karens up there.....
“Also, does anyone really believe that Denver has received more illegal aliens than Texas or Arizona border towns? I have my doubts.”
The article said per capita.
forget the financials....what about the young girls that are probably going to be attacked and their lives changed forever...the human cost to our citizenry is and has been, tremendous.
“They quit using “Illegal aliens” and switched to “illegal immigrants” or “illegal migrants.” Recently they have dropped all usage of “illegal.” The “No human is illegal” crowd has won.”
AP officially dropped “illegal immigrant” over ten years ago. Others soon followed.
Deport the illegals.
Much cheaper and it frees up money and housing for tax paying Americans.
Rhetorical question? Venezuela is a leftist communist sh!thole once a promising economy. The communists drove the industry and the economy into the tank. Wonder how many of the immigrants voted for it?
And now they are coming here.
Rhetorical question?
2) What is the link between Denver and Venezuela.
I understand you general statement.
Interesting questions.
Probably because a vast majority of them are from there. Or maybe it is a propaganda game. Never trust the MSM.
Venezuela was once the favored socialist country of the leftists like Sean Penn.
