Letters: Towns hope ordinances will deter drop-offs of migrants

The towns hope that the threat of fines and potential impounding of buses will deter these drop-offs. However, these ordinances may face legal challenges as they could be seen as violating the Commerce Clause of the US Constitution. [ more ]
