More liberal cities, states ask private residences to house migrants amid overwhelming numbers

Officials in multiple liberal cities and states have appealed to residents to house migrants in private residences to relieve stress on the system.

It comes as the city is scaling back its migrant services in an attempt to reduce the budget deficit by nearly $60 million and consolidate shelters.

"We put out a feeler to all the landlords we have connections with," an official for Denver Human Services told the outlet. "Basically said, listen, we’re going to have some newcomers who are going to need housing."
