 Governor Baker Issues Statement on Arrival of Migrants in Martha’s Vineyard

BOSTON – Today, Governor Charlie Baker issued the following statement on the arrival of migrants in Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday:

 

“On behalf of the Commonwealth, I thank everyone on the ground who quickly came together to provide assistance on the Vineyard. The Commonwealth has many resources for assisting individuals that arrive in Massachusetts with varying immigration statuses and needs and is working with all partners involved to make sure those resources are available to the migrants that arrived last night. In addition, the Baker-Polito Administration is exploring setting up temporary shelter and humanitarian services at Joint Base Cape Cod and will share additional information as soon as it becomes available.” – Governor Charlie Baker

Jesse Brown Responds to Florida’s Flying of Illegal Immigrants to Martha’s Vineyard

PLYMOUTH, Mass. - The 9th Congressional District candidate Jesse Brown responded to the events of September 14th in which approximately 50 illegal immigrants were flown to Martha’s Vineyard from Florida.

“I applaud Governor Baker, along with the local officials and organizations, for providing humanitarian support to these illegal migrants who deserve humane living conditions while they get resettled. But make no mistake, they were invited here by Rep. Bill Keating and President Biden who have opened our borders to mass illegal migration. Their refusal to act on securing the border has caused this crisis, and it’s about time they take responsibility for it.” 

Jesse Brown has been a longtime advocate of securing the southern border and stopping the record numbers of illegal crossings and drug trafficking. Please contact brandon@jessebrownforcongress.com with any inquiries.
