I do suppose you have a comment about how those same conservative states have been given hundreds of millions of tax dollars to do this exact thing, yet haven't, don't you?
Considering they're dealing with a massive border and not state lines... I'm confused about why you think one which is cool with unmitigated flow of people into the country and whining when they made a law to house everyone no questions asked..and the other which is trying to stop it.
Or are you ok with mass amounts of people flooding into the country? Because they don't allow it over in the EU or in Australia or NZ....both are used constantly as beacons of how the USA should be.
So you agree then that the lower states shouldn't receive money then if they refuse to actually do anything about it? Especially since mass. is double dipping by giving money to those lower states to do exactly what they're doing, plus also opening their own communities for these people.
Do anything about what? If they're not properly enforcing the laws by shipping people to another state to make a point, yes they should lose funding. ICE should be handling the borders anyways. It's a federal jurisdiction not a state one. Why ICE likes to use state resources is beyond me. 20k people ICE employs, it needs to be a lot more to secure the land bridge we have.
