The United States is facing an unprecedented migrant crisis that requires federal intervention. Local governments are being asked to subsidize this crisis, but they are neither designed nor built to handle such a massive influx of migrants. This situation has escalated into both a humanitarian and fiscal crisis for cities like New York, Chicago, and Denver.
