All of the Democratic Party voting, sanctuary city believing, illegal immigration loving NYC residents should be supportive of this, right? They’ll all step forward and volunteer immediately, right? When will Mayor Adams offer to house some illegals?
Adams floats idea of New Yorkers housing migrants in ‘private residences’
Any spare rooms at Gracie Mansion?
Mayor Eric Adams now wants to start paying every day New Yorkers to shelter migrants in their own homes – as the Big Apple struggles to find beds for the thousands of asylum seekers still flooding into the city.
In his latest attempt to battle the ongoing migrant crisis, Adams on Monday floated a half baked “private residence” plan, which could possibly see local homeowners getting compensation to put up asylum seekers.
Hizzoner put forward the proposal as he revealed religious leaders had agreed to start housing adult male migrants overnight at 50 places of worship scattered across the five boroughs next month.
“It is my vision to take the next step to this, to go to the faith-based locales and then move to private residents, there are residents who are suffering right now because of economic challenges,” Adams said. “They have spare rooms, they have locales and if we can find a way to get over the 30-day rule and other rules that government has in its place, we can take that $4.2 billion, $4.3 maybe now, that we potentially will have to spend, and we can put it back in the pockets of everyday New Yorkers, everyday houses of worship, instead of putting it in the pockets of corporations.” (note: I included the full quote from Adams, rather than the piecemeal the article does)
I’m getting the feeling that the NY Post isn’t very supportive of the plan. Adams did say that he would pay faith based shelters $125 a night per, apparently, every single adult male they shelter…where are all the women and children? Why does it seem this is mostly adult males? Oh, and it is more than the state pays to shelter foster children.
“It would be absolute bedlam,” Park Slope resident Zainab Jah told The Post.
Her partner, Tim Naylor, who has owned their townhouse for 24 years, added migrants shouldn’t be getting a “free ride” when many New Yorkers “cannot afford a decent place of their own.”
“Even if it was worth it to homeowners, the city shouldn’t be spending our money on that kind of crap. You have enough New Yorkers who can barely afford to live,” he said.
“Before you know it we’re going to get flooded with even more migrants.”
Well, hey, NYC was super supportive of illegal aliens. I guess when only they are somewhere else.
D.C. mayor has floated the idea of converting vacant office space to house migrants and other un-homed and at risk persons.
Good news for the migrants trafficked yo Martha’s Vineyard !
The San Antonio sheriff has signed off on the migrants being trafficked. This will allow them to get the coveted “U” visa which will allow them to work and pay taxes which is why they came here, many walking 1500 miles.
“Where are the women” well Mr Teach if you bothered to check, NYC prioritizes shelter for women and children, they are usually placed in hotels quickly.
The sheriff of San Antonio is a “progressive”. What does that tell ya? Why when democommies send filthy illegals all over the US it’s okay but when the dude in SA does it it’s “trafficking”?
Johnny-why don’t you volunteer your home?
We can always count on Johnny to miss the point: “which will allow them to work and pay taxes, which is why they came here…”.
And if they come legally, as they should, can’t they also work and pay taxes?
Johnny…are you in there….?
My NGO has been awarded grants to purchase small hotels (under 200 rooms) in NY, Newark and Philly. Send to me your illegals and I shall house them (for $2000 a week each). Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants has made several hard core republicans millionaires over the last year. We have no reason to stop taking your money. Thanks.
P.S. Send more.
