Montoya-Galvez: Amid Expected Uptick in Migrant Crossings, Migrant Shelters in Tucson, AZ Say They’re Running Out of Funds and May Reject Families

‘Border Patrol says the agency may have to release migrants on the streets’

EXCERPT:

MONTOYA-GALVEZ: "Well, Margaret, we traveled to the Tucson sector in Arizona which is now actually the busiest border patrol region for migrant crossings. More migrants are crossing in California and Arizona than in Texas — a dramatic shift from last year — and the main shelter system there is telling us that they may have to reject migrants, including families with small children, from Border Patrol, because they're running out of federal funds."
