Pima County Sues Los Federales To Pay Up $12 Million For Illegal Aliens

The main city, Tucson, used to be a declared sanctuary city. But, state law ended that. And a recent ballot initiative had 71% saying they do not want to be a sanctuary city. Would the city council have listened? Not sure, but, they and county want money to deal with the illegals that are there thanks to Biden’s big border opening

Pima County suing Feds for $12 million in migrant care money

Pima County says the Federal government owes it more than $12 million for migrant care. It’s now suing to try to get that money.

Pima County is joining with the cities of Chicago and Denver. The suits claim FEMA was wrong to withhold reimbursement for money the county and those cities spent to shelter migrants and keep them off the streets.

Pima County says that over about five years, it spent more than $52 million in Federal grants to shelter about half a million migrants, but only for a few days at a time, as they prepared to move to other locations and pursue asylum claims.

The money came from FEMA shelter grants approved by Congress.

In February, FEMA said it might withhold reimbursement for grants approved in the last months of the Biden Administration. For Pima County that would be more than five-point-seven million dollars, plus another almost three-point-seven million it has not put in for reimbursement yet.

Well, ask Biden for the money. He’s surely made enough via graft in office. Reach out to all those Democrats who support unfettered illegal immigration (as long as the illegals/migrants aren’t in their own neighborhoods). They could all donate to a Go Fund Me, right?

Pima County and the cities say since Congress approved the money, executive branch agencies have no authority to hold back funds.

Congress may have allocated money via FEMA, but, the allocation didn’t specify WHERE it had to be spent. Trump could send it to lots of small towns which vote GOP who were stuck with all the illegals/migrants.
