Denver’s economic challenges continue to mount as the Democrat-controlled ‘sanctuary city’ struggles with increasing numbers of illegal immigrants. Within a little over a year, the city council has seen costs for feeding its illegal population surge. In December 2023, the city allocated $100,000 for a contract to provide food for its illegal aliens. By January of 2024, the food costs had increased to $475,000. Last month, the city had to pay an additional $450,000 in food costs, with another $500,000 expected to come due in June.

In total, the city has spent around $1.4 million in taxpayer dollars on the feeding of its illegal alien population. With almost 40,000 migrants arriving in the past year in response to Denver’s sanctuary city status, the city’s budgetary stress is reaching crisis levels.
