Homeless advocate Michael McConnell (HomelessnessSD) warns that migrants are being 'dumped' into San Diego's homeless shelters. Why are migrants being set up to become part of the homeless population?
SAN DIEGO – Friday, San Diego Homeless Advocate Michael McConnell tweeted his first-hand account of migrants being “dumped” at a homeless shelter in San Diego.
Under Mayor Todd Gloria’s leadership, the City of San Diego has a record high 1,609 homeless people living in downtown alone. The situation is so bad, that even iconic San Diegans like Bill Walton have been left with no choice but to publicly call out Mayor Gloria for his failures. During the coronavirus pandemic, Golden Hall at the San Diego Civic Center, was converted into a homeless shelter, and is still home to upwards of 400 people this day. But if the San Diego Civic Center were to be destroyed and reconstructed, as some are pushing for, where would these 400-500 people go?
KUSI’s Dan Plante spoke with homeless advocate Michael McConnell, who dedicates his life to helping the homeless, is concerned these Somali migrants are being tossed to the curb by our leadership, and will quickly become part of San Diego’s record high homeless population unless something is done.
