Migrants

The federal government is sending migrants to San Diego. They cannot process these migrants in Texas so they send them to San Diego for processing. It started in mid September with about 200 per day and is now up to 800 per day. There are currently 50,000 migrants in San Diego. They are trying to ship them out to other places in the US but the process cannot keep up. This is on top of an existing problem. A few years ago the state released prisoners who were not charged with violent crimes and state hospitals released patients who were deemed not dangerous. These people used up the existing facilities so there is no room for the migrants. People are sleeping on the street and the county doesn't have the money to care for the migrants. There are similar problems in other cities.
