An Arizona migrant shelter that has housed thousands of asylum seekers plans to cease most operations when funding from Washington runs out.

The Arizona migrant shelters collectively housed an estimated 180-thousand asylum seekers.

Pima County Administrator Jan Lesher said the county cannot afford the roughly $1 million per week that previously would have been covered by federal funds.

The amount “is not something that can be easily absorbed into a Pima County budget,” she said.

In a February memo to Pima officials, Lesher said migrants being released by Border Patrol without shelter services could result in “homelessness on steroids.”
