  • Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman has called on Denver Mayor Mike Johnston to come clean about his potential role in how two nonprofits allegedly housed migrants in Aurora without notifying local officials.

The article discusses Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman's criticism of Denver Mayor Mike Johnston regarding the handling of the migrant crisis and the presence of the Tren de Aragua gang. Coffman has accused Johnston of exacerbating the migrant issue by providing free services, which he believes has led to an influx of migrants into Aurora, where they receive less support. He highlighted the strain on Aurora's resources and the potential security risks posed by the Tren de Aragua gang, which has been linked to crimes in Denver. Coffman's comments were made during a city council meeting where he expressed frustration over the lack of coordination and communication from Denver, suggesting that Denver's policies are pushing migrants into neighboring cities like Aurora, unprepared to handle the additional population and associated challenges.
