The Democrat-run city of Denver, Colorado, is spending millions in local taxpayer money to provide illegal aliens with free flights and bus tickets out of the state.
Records obtained by CBS News Colorado reveal that officials in the city have spent almost $4.5 million in taxpayer money thus far to send more than 12,000 border crossers to alternate destinations.
In the last five months alone, nearly 335 illegal aliens have been awarded free flights, at a cost of $115,000, to leave the sanctuary city.
“We say, ‘Where do you want to go?’ and then we buy them a ticket, usually by bus, and get them on their way,” Jon Ewing with Denver Human Services said.
From Breitbart:
In less than a year, Denver has spent close to $32 million on border crossers and illegal aliens — including $7.5 million on housing and nearly $5 million on food. By the end of the year, as Breitbart News reported, Denver officials expect migrant spending to hit $40 million.
