Description
Fewer shelter beds for migrants in San Diego may be to blame for the recent increase in asylum seekers being dropped at transit stations by federal agents.
Two hotels in San Diego currently are under contract with the state of California to house migrants after they have been processed at the border. A 207-room hotel in the Midway District is operated by Jewish Family Service of San Diego. A 400-room hotel in Mission Valley is operated by Catholic Charities of San Diego. This year, state contracts showed the California Department of Public Health paid $19 million to rent all the rooms in the Midway District hotel, and $28 million to rent the rooms in the Mission Valley hotel to operate both as migrant shelters.
