SAN DIEGO – Earlier this month, the federal government began mass releasing migrants at transit stations across San Diego County. The migrants, who were apprehended by border patrol after trying to enter the country illegally, are released with few resources, but are free to go wherever they wish.
Republican County Supervisor Jim Desmond announced Friday that he has put an agenda item for the upcoming Board meeting to declare a humanitarian crisis, because “we can’t keep accepting thousands into our region when we’re at capacity. This item is urgent and timely due to the influx street releases throughout the County of San Diego beginning September 13, 2023 and continuing at least twice daily. On September 20th, 2023 the Board of Supervisors received a letter on behalf of the San Diego Immigrant Rights Consortium, a coalition of approximately 50 community, faith, labor and legal organizations across San Diego County.
