The City of Bisbee has set up a temporary shelter for asylum seekers dropped of by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Mayor Ken Budge said this is a better option than having them left at Safeway.
BISBEE, Ariz. — Cochise County is seeing fewer migrant street releases after working with U.S. Customs and Border Protection to coordinate releases with the arrival of buses from Pima County.
“Minute by minute. Hour by hour. We never know when the text is going to come through, 'oh we’re full in Tucson and we’re not accepting anyone else,' or 'listen, the noon bus didn’t show up so we’re going to bring them to you',” Budge said. “It protects the migrants and also keeps them from wandering around our neighborhoods and making people weary of what might be happening,” Budge said.“We’ve all been migrants at one time, our families back in the day," Hannigan said."It wasn’t that long ago you know that my Irish immigrants came to New York. And no different from these people.”
For the last few days, CBP has been scheduling releases when the buses arrive to take them to a resource center, so they don't have to do street releases. But there is always a chance releases could resume.
