The governor of Massachusetts is calling on the Biden administration to act, as nearly 100 migrants camp out in Boston’s international airport while the city’s shelters are at capacity.

Dozens of migrant families, including several with young children, have been sleeping on the cold floor of Logan International Airport’s international terminal, reports the New York Post.

Gov. Maura Healey (D) called on Washington, DC, for a solution to the “border situation.”

“We need D.C. to act. We need Congress to act,” she told CBS News on Monday:

The path is there in terms of what needs to be done to fix the border situation, to fix some of the asylum processes, and to get much-needed funding to some of the interior states who have had to shoulder the burden for a problem that is geopolitical and is not the state’s making.

The governor previously asked the Biden administration for an additional $250 million to address the state’s overwhelmed shelter system in September 2023, reported the Boston Globe.  (Excerpt from Breitbart.)
