BOSTON — The motels are empty. The headlines, not so much.

Governor Maura Healey’s now-defunct migrant shelter initiative — dubbed “Healey Hotels” by critics — may have shut its doors, but the fallout is far from over. What began as an “emergency housing solution” spiraled into scandal, criminal charges, and a price tag north of $2 billion.

Yet despite the chaos, Healey insists she’s done nothing wrong — and is asking voters for four more years.

At the Comfort Inn in Rockland — one of several facilities converted into shelters — a Haitian migrant was charged with raping a 15-year-old girl with disabilities. Weeks later, a Boston Globe investigation found multiple convicted sex offenders were living or working in other state-run shelters, including locations housing children.

Officials called them oversights. Critics called them a pattern.

No-bid contracts, questionable vendors, $140 cab fares, and near-zero transparency plagued the program. The administration finally shut down the hotel shelters — but only after weeks of bad headlines and rising public pressure.

While the “Healey Hotels” may be shuttered, the spending has continued. Now, migrants are being placed in taxpayer-funded apartments across the Commonwealth — quietly, and without much explanation.

The state has spent over $2 billion across two fiscal years. The surplus? Gone. The rainy day fund? Being tapped. The results? Still unclear.

She’s also running for re-election.

Pressed on the migrant scandal, Healey pointed elsewhere. She blamed the Trump administration, took shots at former Governor Charlie Baker, and framed the issue as a matter of compassion — not competence.

But according to her critics, she’s been housing them.

Republican hopefuls Brian Shortsleeve and Mike Kennealy have made the migrant crisis a campaign centerpiece.

Shortsleeve accused Healey of allowing “countless preventable violent crimes” through weak enforcement and zero cooperation with federal immigration authorities.

Kennealy, a former Baker cabinet member, warned that Massachusetts is veering toward “California-style chaos,” and has called for an end to policies that shield criminal illegal immigrants from deportation.

Healey, for her part, has brushed off both men as alarmists — doubling down on her claim that Massachusetts is safe, stable, and well-managed.

According to Healey, Massachusetts leads the nation in safety — citing low gun deaths and property crime.

But critics say that doesn’t reflect what’s happening on the ground. A teenage girl raped in a state-run shelter. Convicted sex offenders living alongside children. $2 billion gone with nothing to show for it.

Still, Healey says she’s “proud” of her record — and wants four more years.
