Mayor Michael Hancock activated an emergency center to process the influx of migrants.
Mayor Michael Hancock tells the press the City of Denver has opened an emergency intake center to handle the sudden and overwhelming influx of migrants from the border.
According to Hancock, the City of Denver knew Title 42 was going to expire on May 11, and"conventional wisdom said we were going to see an influx in June." But the surge has come much sooner. Miguel Alvares and two friends to his left sit in Denver's new migrant intake center and wait for their tickets to a second location to print.Denver wants the exact location of the new intake center to be kept secret to protect the migrants there. It opened on May 11, and city officials say that it will only be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Hancock, now in his final two months as mayor, is aware that many Denver residents are also living on the streets and insisted that"we will never stop working to serve those who are experiencing homelessness." A sign on the side of a chair in Denver's emergency migrant intake center reads"Viajando" to separate those who are staying in Denver from those who are going to another location."The rest of Latin America — not even Mexico or anywhere over there — the people aren't so nice," Alvarado says. Like others, though, he praised the treatment he received in Honduras, noting that"they have a high level of care" for passing migrants.
