Denver migrants refuse to leave encampment, send mayor list of demands
Story by Gabriel Hays • 12h 

 
A group of illegal immigrants in Denver is refusing to leave encampments until the city meets its demands.

The migrants published a document with 13 specific demands before they acquiesce to Denver Human Services’ request to leave the encampments and move to more permanent shelters funded by the city.
 
"At the end of the day, what we do not want is families on the streets of Denver," Jon Ewing, a spokesman for Denver Human Services, told Fox 31.

The list sent to Mayor Mike Johnston included requests for provisions of "fresh, culturally appropriate" food, no time limits on showers and free immigration lawyers, the outlet reported.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If "culturally appropriate food" is that important to them, they can always go home. :tongue2:
