Native Legal Oregonians can't afford to live in Portland ,but there's always money and housing for illegals.
Ian K. Kullgren of the Oregonian reports:
The federal government awarded a Portland-based nonprofit nearly $3.7 million for this year to house unaccompanied immigrant minors, according to records from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Morrison Child and Family Services, a nonprofit that supports victims of traumatic events, was awarded $3,694,729 in federal grant money for the 2014 fiscal year for staffing and "secure residential services" for unaccompanied immigrant children. The most recent bump came July 11, when the nonprofit was given $923,681.
In total, Morrison has received nearly $16.5 million in grants since 2009, all of which has been to house unaccompanied immigrant minors....
....Officials have kept quiet on even the most basic details regarding any children arriving in Portland: Whether unaccompanied children are indeed being brought here, when they will arrive, how many and how long they might stay.
The Los Angeles Times reported earlier this month:
President Obama and his aides have repeatedly sought to dispel the rumors driving thousands of children and teens from Central America to cross the U.S. border each month with the expectation they will be given a permiso and allowed to stay.
But under the Obama administration, those reports have proved increasingly true.
