City services in Enterprise are strained from a recent influx of Haitian migrants, according to Mayor William Cooper. Enterprise is one of several communities across Alabama affected by a federal refugee program that resettles Haitians in America. "I would like to take a moment to address concerns that I am hearing from our citizens regarding some Haitian migrants. First, I would like to say that we are sympathetic to the men, women and children who leave their country to focus on building a better life, especially amidst economic hardship, political instability, social unrest, war, and natural disasters. We are aware that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas' program allows refugees from Haiti to be placed in our community. It is unfortunate that we as a city were given no advanced notice nor additional resources to accommodate this influx," Cooper said on Wednesday on Facebook. "My office is in close contact with local law enforcement, the healthcare community, the school systems, and other groups that might be impacted by this unexpected migrant influx. There have been some serious allegations of crimes happening in our area. If these things did happen, it has not been reported to our law enforcement. If anyone is aware of criminal activity, I urge you to let the appropriate authorities know so the claims can be investigated. We will uphold the law regardless of race, gender, or ethnicity. If someone breaks the law, we will pursue them to the fullest extent. The federal programs that have brought these migrants to the Wiregrass have unintended consequences. Frankly, we have not been given the resources to help these migrants assimilate as best they can into the local community. Our services are strained."

So he’d be ok with the migrants if the feds gave him some money?

The stray animal population there will disappear. If that mayor was worth a darn he’d be loading buses and moving them out. He’s just jabbering a word salad.

The strays will be eradicated faster than when boll weevil was eradicated.

Hearing that the real folks behind this are large farming interests who intend to employ these refugees on their farms for low wages

They don’t care if the city has the resources. It’s Coward/Piven and the institutions are meant to intentionally collapse. Destruction of the middle class is imminent.

LOL…no!

I’m involved in large farming interests.

This is being done all over the country in “red” areas.

They don’t want these people to work. They want them sitting on a porch collecting a check, then someone will cast a ballot for them.

I have yet to see any evidence of a legal carve out that exempts farmers from paying minimum wage.

For decades LEO has refused to do their duty and arrest the criminals. Hopefully this invasion of illegals and the special dispensation importation of mentally retarded uneducated dirt eating savages triggers a reform.

Those who support minimum wage laws should seek equal application and bear the burden of their own efforts with the resulting consequences.

No shite, this is 100% a Democrat created problem. They should have to deal with it. Unfortunately, the rich white liberals never have to.
