DC Sanctuary Providers Overwhelmed By Busloads of Migrants

THEY SHOULD DROP THEM OFF AT THE WHITE HOUSE! OR CALL KAMALA!

All those DC based sanctuary aid societies have suddenly found themselves “overwhelmed” by the endless stream of buses up from Texas and Arizona.

Overworked and unpaid volunteers have started calling in sick.

As Washington Post relates, “coronavirus quarantines sidelined many volunteers” at the same time “area shelters filled up, leaving some of the migrants to sleep at Union Station after they arrived.” The asylees are furious.

DC flooded by angry illegals

For months, one bus after another has been arriving from the border, since Republican governors in Arizona and Texas started offering free rides to DC.

When the latest batches got there, they found the red carpet had been rolled up and stashed in a closet.

“We were told we were going to be helped here, that somebody was waiting for us,” griped Andres David Blanco, in Spanish. He left Venezuela a month and a half ago and finally made it to Union Station by Tuesday night, July 12. That, he was told, was the end of the line and now, he’s on his own.

The money hasn’t been pouring in like it used to since George Soros retired.

That means the “network of mutual aid organizations” who provide sanctuary services ran out of funds. There’s only one nonprofit operating with a federal grant and they’ve been “scrambling to help migrants, while the number of buses arriving in the city continues to rise.”

Title 42 hasn’t been lifted yet, which means the border remains closed. Everyone on every bus came across anyway. Now, they’re being welcomed to DC in style. Though not the style they expected. They hope to find work soon.

The wheels came off on Tuesday night.

“Core organizers and volunteers with the Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network advocates were in quarantine after being exposed to the coronavirus while helping migrants over the weekend.”

DMV area “community organizations and volunteers have shown up every day for over three months to support migrants but we are exhausted, burned out, and do not have the resources that the government does,” Madhvi Bahl relates.

SAMU’s “First Response” unit in DC is “an international aid organization that has a Federal Emergency Management Agency grant to help the migrants.”

They have a four day workweek and don’t show up in the office until Wednesday. They had all been out of the loop since the previous Saturday.

Tatiana Laborde, SAMU’s managing director, claims they “tried to put together a team to find last-minute resources after it became clear Tuesday that there were not enough volunteers to help the incoming migrants.”

There were too many buses. “We are increasing our capacity, but all the agencies involved know that this is going to take time.”

Right now, they have 15 buses pulling in to DC every week and they can only handle half of them.

They only get paid “to provide emergency aid for around 2,000 migrants a month.” For weeks now, they get twice that and don’t get paid for the difference. That means they’re expected to do twice as much work for half the money.

There’s progressive economics for you.

One of the SAMU shelters in Montgomery County, Maryland, prioritizes “migrant families from Arizona who often arrive with children.” It holds 50 and everyone must leave after 3 days. It’s full every morning.

AND BY THE HUNDREDS THEY JUST KEEP INVADING OUR COUNTRY!

They have been begging DC officials for more help, like “a permanent place near Union Station.” What they’re learning is that talk is cheap. Their conversation “has not materialized” into “concrete actions.” They mayor’s office isn’t returning phone calls from the press.

DC Council member Brianne K. Nadeau is convinced that SAMU will get their head around the problem on their own.
Even so, it won’t be enough to get the job done because there are far too many landscapers, housekeepers and nanny’s on the market now. “Donde esta 14th and U?” asks Leonardo Javier León, 26. “I was told there are many restaurants there where I can aApply for a job.”

SAMU, Nadeau counters, “has a learning curve, they have a deep bench of people who are good at emergency response and serving refugees, but haven’t done that work in D.C. before.

If governments across the region are depending on SAMU to get this done, it’s not feasible.” The Imperial Palace needs to fork over more money and maybe send in the National Guard.
As “stretched thin as our government is right now, we probably need more boots on the ground with SAMU until they have things up and running.“
