Denver's Democratic mayor pleads for help to handle migrant crisis as city comes 'close to its breaking point'
Fox News
Mayor Mike Johnston told Fox News' Lawrence Jones that the city is at a 'breaking point' and needs help to handle the burdens of the migrant crisis.
Taylor Penley is an associate editor with Fox News.
"I think we have successfully welcomed almost 40,000 migrants in the last year, and we know what it takes to do this successfully. We just need that help, and the things we need are federal dollars, but the most important thing is we need work authorization for folks when they arrive. We need those resources at the border, so you can add more security at the border, so you can help process those asylum claims and so the folks that do arrive here can work."
