SAN DIEGO (NewsNation) — San Diego County recently approved $3 million in funding to help thousands of migrants who have been struggling to find shelter.
County officials say they want to see those funds spent on migrant services as the city struggles with sheltering the 44,000 individuals who have been released into the city by Customs and Border Patrol agents since September.
Local officials told NewsNation that the influx of thousands of migrants is making the city’s homeless situation even more difficult to manage. The county says that without federal assistance, it is depending on nonprofit organizations to help house and care for migrants.
