Yarmouth, Massachusetts, is an 85% white, mostly Irish/English, above-average income town on Cape Cod. It also has a majority-liberal population protesting the unexpected arrival of illegal immigrants (Migrants™) dumped on them by the State of (Emergency) Massachusetts.
In a letter to Gov. Maura Healey Tuesday, the Select Board urged the state not to place migrants at another possible housing site in town, the Yarmouth Resort motel. Officials wrote that the location has “become a nuisance to the town,” does not have an occupancy permit and the property is under a cease-and-desist order. Meanwhile, the issue has become a source of contention in town, according to Town Administrator Robert Whritenour, who said the lack of communication from the state is only exacerbating the problem.
It’s such a big deal that the Yarmouth Town home page has a migrant shelter update alert at the top of the home page.
If you click the link, you see a press release that updates the reader on how the ‘new arrivals’ were unexpected, but Yarmouth has sucked it up and done as expected.
Yarmouth, September 18, 2023 – Town Administrator Robert Whritenour of Yarmouth received unexpected news from Governor Healy’s Office on September 13, regarding the presence of additional migrant families at the Harbor Side Suites. Including previous arrivals, a total of 21 families, comprising 72 individuals, were reported to be residing at the motel without prior notice to the Town of Yarmouth having been received.
Hotels and motels have been the primary destination for illegal entrants during Obama’s Third Term. Especially when they (the illegals) find themselves on liberal plantations. Cities, towns, and states have been “renting” the rooms with taxpayer dollars, much to the increasing dismay of the property owners of the hotels and the residents and business owners in surrounding areas.

Looks nice. If you want to book a two-night double occupancy, it’ll run you 538.00. They have 45 “rooms” available. Sorry. They have twenty rooms left after filling 25 with migrant families – likely long-term guests, and the locals are riled up.
Meanwhile, protesters have been gathering outside of Town Hall and the hotel where the migrants are staying. One woman was kicked out of a heated five-hour meeting on the subject Tuesday night. Residents voiced concerns over the influx of migrant families, including the cost of health care, education and communication.
And tourism. You can’t “house” tourists in rooms filled with illegal alien families, but talk about an opportunity? Liberals looking to show their support can not only vacation in Yarmouth; they should book rooms at the Harbor Side Suites (before they are all occupied by Migrants™). Mingle with the huddled masses.
And where are they planning to “house” them after the Harbor Side puts out the no vacancy sign?
It’s a good question, but here’s a better one. What did they think would happen to local housing, health care, and education after leaving the border open to millions of illegal entrants? That only right-wing border towns would have to live with the aches and pains of progressive policy? Where is the equity in that?
And let us not forget that these are human beings (the migrants, not the liberals), many of them with children. The political leaders you keep electing* promised them something, and here you are bitching about having to deliver on it.
Or are you just pissed that you can’t wash your hands of them with the alacrity of the open-border progs on Martha’s Vineyard (who got an award for their quick response)?
