BREAKING: Governors and Mayors Unite Against Barack Obama
The federal government is dumping thousands of illegals in these communities, demanding that they provide them with food, shelter, and other forms of care.
This is eroding public funds and other limited resources, putting an unnecessary strain on the economy and making a lot of people very angry.
Local mayors have been joining forces with state governors to create bans preventing illegals from being dropped in their areas, and protesters have taken to the streets, voicing their concerns and often stopping the federal government in their tracks.

As the federal government seeks to provide temporary shelter for the tens of thousands of illegal Central American children that have flooded over the southern United States border, local communities are pushing back.Awesome. This border crisis is awakening patriots all over the country to rise up and defend their rights, something liberals probably didn’t intend to happen at such an incredible rate.
“Governors and mayors have the right to know when the federal government is transporting a large group of individuals, in this case illegal immigrants, into your state,” Nebraska GOP Gov. Dave Heineman, told the Journal.
Beyond vociferous opposition among communities closest to the border, protest has fanned out across the country. In Escondido, California, the planning commission denied a permit to convert a former nursing home into a youth shelter after residents protested, according to the Journal. In Murrieta, California, protesters blocked buses carrying migrants.
A proposal to place immigrant children in Greece, N.Y., was also axed after residents protested, as was a plan by the Department of Health and Human Services to put undocumented children at a former Army Reserve facility near Westminster, Maryland.
At the National Governors Association meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, this weekend, governors raised concerns over the cost of housing children in their states, according to the Journal. And a few communities that have not even been approached for relocations have taken preemptive steps to block it, passing ordinances banning newly arrived immigrants from being placed in their towns.
Residents in Richmond, Virginia, were among the earliest to protest the opening of a shelter to relocate children.
Hopefully, despite the best efforts of the federal government, these protests will continue to spread around the country, with local and state officials working hand-in-hand to put a stop to this crisis and return some of the power to the American people.
