SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio leaders discussed immigration at a town hall on Monday.
The meeting, which was not open to the public, began at 6 p.m. at the San Fernando Ballroom in downtown San Antonio.
The panel featured the following leaders at the event:
Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller
J. Antonio Fernández, president and CEO of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of San Antonio
San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg
Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar
Olmo Lara, Cónsul de Protección and Consulado General de México
San Antonio officials held the town hall less than a week after the final group of migrants departed the Migrant Resource Center on the North Side.
The City of San Antonio on Feb. 3 announced that it would phase out the facility and not accept any new arrivals.
At the time, 88 people were at the facility. On Thursday, the last group left the MRC.
