The city of Denver declared a state of emergency on Thursday in order
to stave off a local humanitarian crisis amid an influx of illegal
aliens from the southern border, mainly from El Paso, Texas.
Mayor Michael Hancock, a Democrat, issued the declaration as several
hundred illegal aliens, mostly from Central and South America, have
arrived in the state in just the past few days alone.
âLet me be frank: This influx of migrants, the unanticipated nature of
their arrival, and our current space and staffing challenges have put
an immense strain on city resources to the level where theyâre on the
verge of reaching a breaking point at this time,â Hancock said at a
news conference on Thursday.
âWhat I donât want to see is a local humanitarian crisis of
unsheltered migrants on our hands because of a lack of resources,â the
mayor added.
According to Hancockâs office, more than 900 aliens have arrived in
Denver over the past several months, including more than 600 people
since Dec. 2.
Another 247 aliens have arrived since Monday alone, while 75 turned up
at a local homeless shelter overnight on Thursday evening, according
to his office.

Denver âOn the Verge of Reaching Breaking Pointâ
Approximately 404 aliens are currently being accommodated in the
cityâs emergency shelters, including 102 at church and nonprofit
shelter sites, the mayorâs office said.
The âanticipated natureâ of the arrival of the influx of illegal
aliens has placed extreme pressure on the cityâs efforts to shelter
them, leading to limited space which is being further exacerbated by a
lack of staffing, Hancockâs office said during Thursdayâs news
conference, noting that winter weather was set to make the situation
worse.
Hancock added that Denver is currently âat the level where we are on
the verge of reaching breaking point at this time.â
âThe declaration is another tool in the toolbox to help serve the
increasing number of migrants arriving in Denver, particularly as
winter weather sets in,â Hancock said.
Under the emergency declaration, Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat, will be
alerted that Denver is enacting a state of emergency.
Denver will then be able to access additional emergency resources to
help manage the influx of aliens, and will also be able to continue
requesting financial assistance from various funding sources.
Hancock said that, together with community partners, and the help of
local churches and nonprofits, the city continues to provide
aliensâthe majority of which are coming to the city having entered the
United States through El Paso, Texasâwith emergency shelter.

Hancock Takes Aim at Biden Admin
Denver has already forked out more than $800,000 on the illegal alien
sheltering effort, and that number is expected to increase
significantly.
A majority of the aliens who have arrived in Denver are from
Venezuela, according to Hancock, and are fleeing a political and
humanitarian crisis in their home country.
The mayor took aim at the Biden administration for failing to address
the âcritical situationâ or respond adequately, despite being aware of
it.
âIt is at a crisis point right now and cities all over this country
are being forced to deal with something weâre not equipped to deal
with,â he said.
The mayorâs declaration comes shortly before the end of the Trump-era
Title 42 program that allowed Border Patrol agents to turn illegal
aliens back to their country immediately if they were deemed to pose a
health threat amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Title 42, which helped stem the tide of illegal immigration and has
been used millions of times to expel aliens since March 2020, is set
to end on Dec. 21.
The Department of Homeland Security has unveiled a plan (pdf) to help
deal with the influx of migrants attempting to enter the United States
once Title 42 is dropped, including closing gaps along the southwest
border wall, creating more temporary detention tents, and increasing
prosecutions of smugglers.
However, the department has said that it expects around 9,000 to
14,000 illegal aliens to cross the border daily.
