Massachusetts taxpayers are about to spend $ 1 billion for the state emergency shelter program for the 2010 financial year, migrant families constituting a significant part of those who receive aid, according to a new report.

The administration of Governor Maura Healey has already spent $ 830 million so far during the 2010 financial year – which began on July 1 – welcoming more than 4,000 families who received a shelter funded by taxpayers, food, education, legal aid and cases management.

Costs operate at around $ 3,496 per week per family, or about $ 1,000 per person per week for the program, known as the emergency assistance system (EA).

The report, a bihebdomedary update of June 16 of the Massachusetts Executive Office for Housing and Livable Communities, notes that $ 679.6 million was spent for direct shelter and an additional $ 149.7 million for enveloping services, including education assistance, work programs, paying national security and rental assistance to help to leave the system.

About 1,600 of the total 4,088 families currently in the system are migrants, depending on the report, although this figure is probably much higher, because many migrant families are counted as “residents of Massachusetts” for eligibility for eligibility.

The state was overwhelmed by an influx of migrants under the Biden administration and had trouble welcoming them. Many migrants ended up sleeping at Logan airport while the Healey administration worked to set up temporary shelters, many of which are in hotels.

There are currently 599 hotel rooms used as part of the program and the report indicates that all the hotels used as part of the program will be closed this year.

Already, the number of hotels used as shelters fell to 28, against a peak of more than 100, depending on the report.

“The administration is on the right track to reduce (the) workload to 4,000 families and close all the hotel shelters by the end of the calendar year,” said the report. He follows Healey, a democrat, also saying last month that all the hotel shelters would be closed by the end of the year. She said that the number of people in the EA system had also dropped below 5,000 last month.

“The closure of hotel shelters is essential to ensure that families are set up to succeed and to save our state from hundreds of millions of dollars a year,” said Lieutenant-Governor Kim Driscle last month.

The report arises while the influx of new migrants has almost finished since the border passages are at historical stockings.

The Trump administration’s border, Tsar Tom Homan on Tuesday, said the border patrol had only met 95 illegal immigrants in one day and that no migrants had been released in the United States last month.

Mike Kennealy, a republican publication for the governor who has previously been secretary to housing and economic development, castigated the report.

He declared that taxpayers “are forced to end the billions of billions of dollars to a non -responsible and broken system that perpetuates the migrant crisis – and we are fed up,” said Boston Herald.

Brian Shortesleeve, who also presents himself to the post of governor as a republican, criticized the management of the governor and said that his policies were unfair to taxpayers.

“Maura Healey made Massachusetts a migrant magnet with the value of their state advantages funded by taxpayers, almost doubling household income typical of Massachusetts,” said Shortesleeve. “At a time when our people find it difficult to manage just under the cost of Healey’s stuffy living, his distorted sense of justice adds an insult to the injury.”

Fox News contacted Healey’s office to comment but did not immediately receive an answer.

“While families find it difficult to afford daily necessities, the state takes off $ 15,166 per family per month. It’s not just crazy – it’s offensive.”

The report also notes that 1,599 people in the EA system are currently employed and 2,270 migrants have received work permits.

With the exercise ending on June 30, the Massachusetts should exceed $ 1.06 billion, provides for the report.
