I’m horrified! This entire situation needs to be audited for compliance! Per diem rate is $68 per day for meals and incidentals. The government decided that is the amount needed for 3 meals per day. Looking at those “meals”, I use the term loosely, where’s the rest of the money? Where are the decent meals with fresh fruit and vegetables? What the hell? And why are these hotels in such poor condition? Looking at the amount they are charging the taxpayer, the rooms should be well furnished with lavish bedding, the best toiletries, full cable. So far, every migrant temp housing I’ve read about is truly a shit hole. People are lining their own pockets! Does the hotel have a full kitchen? It would probably be more cost effective to staff the kitchen and prepare proper meals.

The 3 governors of Illinois, Mass & California (JB Pritzker, Maura Healey and Gavin Newsome)

and mayors Karen Bass, Brandon Johnson, and Michelle Wu are two pairs of Three Stooges.

Do 'migrants' include low income or homeless citizens?

Since illegal aliens can't legally work, vote or count towards the census, what's our interest?

They are counted in the census.

Are illegal aliens counted in the US census?

Yes, illegal aliens are counted in the U.S. Census. The Census Bureau includes all residents of the United States in the census count, regardless of their immigration status. This practice is intended to ensure that the census provides an accurate representation of the population for the purposes of apportionment of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and for the distribution of federal funds.

Maybe that will change. "The Supreme Court has not provided a definitive ruling on whether illegal aliens must be counted for congressional apportionment, leaving some ambiguity."
