Colorado has bent over backwards to be welcoming to unlawful border crossers in recent times. Within the meantime, and maybe as a direct outcome, homelessness went up by 30 p.c within the state during the last 12 months.
Maybe Colorado can be higher off if leaders within the state spent extra time worrying concerning the welfare of Americans, and possibly attempting to construct extra housing.
It’s not like there isn’t any funding. The state has spent thousands and thousands attempting to handle this downside and who is aware of what number of tax {dollars} they’ve spent on unlawful aliens?
