U.S. Reps. Castro and Casar land $38 million to keep San Antonio's Migrant Resource Center open

Democratic U.S. Reps. Joaquin Castro and Greg Casar have landed $38 million in funding for San Antonio's Migrant Resource Center, which otherwise would have experienced a lapse in operating cash at month's end. The new money will allow MRC, managed by the nonprofit Catholic Charities, to continue serving asylum seekers who pass through the Alamo City on their way to be reunited with family or reach more permanent living arrangements. The funding also comes as the United States braces for a surge in border crossings with the end of Title 42 on May 11.
