Several local churches in San Diego
say they are being overwhelmed with the influx of asylum-seeking
immigrant being dropped off on the streets with nowhere to go.
The
churches say they have been taking in about 50 people a day in 10
different locations. Their hospitality toward immigrants are needed more
than ever as Immigration and Customs Enforcement releases detained
families without any plans on where these asylum seekers should go or
how they should get there.
"There
has been a definite uptake in the number of people that are needing
assistance right now," Episcopal Dioceses of San Diego spokeswoman
Hannah Wilder said. "My understanding is that ICE is dropping people off
without any place to go without any food or money."
