Democrat-run Maine town approves nearly $3.5 million to build luxury apartments for migrants, cover their rent for 2 years

It has been revealed that the Democrat-run town of Brunswick, Maine is greenlighting millions of dollars to be spent on luxury apartments for illegal immigrants and other migrants.

This new budget from the Maine State Housing Authority allocates almost $3.5 million to cover the rents of 60 migrant families in five buildings in Brunswick for two years.



Around 582,000 Americans were homeless in 2022, according to estimates from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). 

The state is additionally spending $100,000 of taxpayer money to assist dozens of Brunswick migrants in processing their asylum applications, as well as secure the ability to work.

An asylum seeker from Nigeria said that her next luxury apartment feels like a "palace" compared to her old spots, the Daily Mail reports.

"In [a] hotel, there are rules and regulations," she said. 

"In a shelter, too, we have so many people. We share the kitchen together. We share the restroom together."

This taxpayer-funded housing for illegal immigrants and other migrants comes less than two weeks after a new report claimed that Mexico's government demanded that Joe Biden grant amnesty to at least 10 million illegal immigrants in order to receive any kind of help or cooperation during the border crisis. Both nations are set to meet in Washington late this month, and Mexican and American officials alike have reportedly claimed that Mexico holds significant leverage in the negotiations.

Numerous new records have been set for illegal crossings at the U.S. border in recent years; the nation saw a record-high of over 300,000 encounters of illegal immigration in December alone. It is a costly process as well; an interim report from the House Republicans' Committee on Homeland Security revealed that the porous U.S. southern border has cost American taxpayers an estimated $451 billion.
