Sanctuary states are planning to dish out billion in American tax dollars to workers in 2024, offering accommodation, food, and health care, among other things, to the fresh immigrants that have entered the United States on President Joe Biden’s view.
In New York, legislators approved a$ 237 billion resources, expected to be signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul ( D), that includes about$ 2. 4 billion to deliver accommodation, health care, and legitimate services to just arrived workers.
New York State Senate Republican Leader Rob Ortt has warned that such financing for migrants will just attract more improper emigration to the shelter status.

In the sanctuary city of Chicago, Illinois, the city council voted 30-18 to review$ 70 million in additional revenue to home, feed, and provide health care to the almost 40,000 workers who have arrived since August 2022.
In addition, Illinois state officials along with the federal government are providing Chicago with$ 48 million in funds to provide care for migrants. Even more money, some$ 182 million, is expected to be allotted to migrants by Illinois state lawmakers as part of a budget for 2025.
Democrat Alderman Anthony Beale, who voted against the funding, said, “If you cut off the funding spigot, they won’t come. ”
“ When are we going to help us? When are we going to help the people here? ” Beale asked.
