Aurora’s city government wants to make clear that it has no plans to take in or provide services for an influx of migrants coming into the city from other municipalities, according to a resolution that the City Council passed on Monday night. The resolution, which also included people who are homeless getting transported to Aurora from other cities, passed on a 7-3 vote, despite most public commenters on the issue urging council members to reject it. “The City Council affirms remaining a Non-Sanctuary City and asserts the City does not currently have the financial capacity to fund new services related to this crisis and demands that other municipalities and entities do not systematically transport migrants or people experiencing homelessness to the City,” the resolution states. The resolution also included a call to the federal government to “secure our nation’s borders.” Denver began seeing droves of migrants, mostly from Venezuela, coming to the city starting in December 2022, and has since served nearly 39,000 people.
