Denver, which is commonly referred to as a “sanctuary city,” announced on Wednesday that it will spend $89.9 million on services for incoming illegal migrants, pulling some of the funding from roughly $45 million in public programs and services. Denver’s police department will be hit with an $8.4 million reduction — about 1.9% of its total operating budget, the city confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Denver became the top destination per capita for incoming migrants in 2023, having had more than 40,000 arrive that year alone — putting the total migrant population at roughly 710,000, according to NBC News. Denver already spent over $42 million in 2023 in housing and medical services for migrants and plans to spend over $100 million on similar costs in 2024.

The fire department will also suffer a $2.5 million reduction, or about 0.8% of its total operating costs, the city told the DCNF. Half of those reductions will also come from vacant positions.

Once the illegals start to fully infest places like Aspen et al, they’ll start rethinking their liberalism.

I'd be stunned if it were otherwise. They're good little nazis and would vote for Hitler himself if he ran as a 'D.'

And it’s all due to the legalization of marajuana and the commie transplants from Commiefornia.

It only took Martha’s Vineyard two days to kick their “newcomers” back to the mainland.

Oh, sure. Makes perfect logical sense. Import more crime and have less cops. Right? Who needs cops anyway? You know at 2:00 am when guns are firing outside? Just go back to sleep and pretend it’s all over.

50-60 years ago, the city leadership would have been run out of town on a rail, or better yet, confined to a state mental institution for the insane.
We’ve fallen a long, long ways.....

They should cut police pay and benefits by 10% across the board, lay off some and freeze hiring. That’ll show em how they like illegals living off their taxes.

Aren’t the Illegals entitled to each get as many Aspen cabins as they want because Colorado is now such a wonderful Sanctuary? And I am not talking about any cheap cabins. These guests will want the best.

Just make sure we have a strong firewall in place to protect the federal Treasury from these sanctuaries.
