How about all the illegals/migrants he’s shipped out of NYC? What about people came here legally and went through tons of money and time to become legal. Why go through the process, when government doesn’t care about the legal ways?
New York City Mayor Eric Adams argued Tuesday that it is “anti-American” not to allow the approximately 84,000 migrants who have come to the Big Apple to legally work in the United States.
During a press conference meant to announce the Adams administration’s self-proclaimed success at moving homeless people from shelters to permanent housing, the mayor addressed questions regarding his controversial decompression strategy to relocate migrants who arrived to New York City elsewhere in the state.
“We’re at full capacity,” Adams said. “It’s just unbelievable what’s happening to the people of the city of New York that are going through this. And nothing is more anti-American than you can’t have a job when you come to America. There’s nothing more anti-American. Every one of us in this room, family members came from somewhere. And the guiding light of this country is to be able to come here and work. We have a population of 84,000 people that we’re saying you cannot work. That’s anti-American.”
Yes, we came legally. All those people getting off the ships at Ellis Island came legally. These people are showing up at the border demanding food, housing, healthcare, education, money, and jobs. Well, some want jobs, many just want America to pay for everything.
Adams and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, both Democrats, have called on President Biden for expedited work authorization for asylum seekers.
Sure, they can work. Outside of the U.S. No need to be taking more jobs from Americans.
“When the storm hit upstate, they called New York City. New York City has always been here for the entire state,” Adams said, referencing heavy rain and flooding impacting the Hudson Valley. “The storm of migrants, asylum seekers have hit us for over a year now. We need help. We need help on a national government. We need help on the state government.”
Aw. A whole year. Now go talk to the mayor and citizens of those border towns who’ve had to deal with this for decades, and seen those numbers and the associated problems skyrocket since Biden took office.
At least if they are allowed to work, they’ll pay something in taxes, and consume less of them.
Is that why we as a nation should encourage unskilled immigrants to flood our country? We need their taxes? Since out government now created money from thin air, what does it matter if anyone pays taxes? Ever?
Except the whole point of not allowing them to work is to reduce incentives for them to come here at all. Naturally, if the entire social safety net opens up on their arrival, those disincentives don’t exist.
There are currently 11 million job openings in the USA unemployment is record low. Wages are increasing bc of a labor shortage which helps to create inflation.
In NYC 70 % of undocumented migrants work. THAT is the reason they came here. Border towns have problems? Give them free tickets to places that need workers and then let them work.
Teach doesn’t/can’t even understand that many especially Mexicans. Only plan on staying and working here for a finite length of time, day 5 years. Long enough to save and build a house
Or buy a truck or other job and then return to their families and loved ones back home. He can’t understand that for some humans there are things more important than money.
And you seem to not understand that some things are illegal. Sorry, Johnny, but there’s plenty of US citizens to take those jobs.
“Give them free tickets to places that need workers…” How about giving the illegals free tickets back to where they came from?
How about making things so bad that they walk back home. Americans have consistently indicated they are not welcome. Yes, you can get some study to say otherwise, but Trump was elected to get this scum out.
Skyrocketing!
OMG
We had 11.2 million undocumented and now we have 13 mm
Our total population increased from 333 million to 335 million
Will we be able to survive this massive influx ?
Probably if handled correctly, we will barely notice it.
John,
No one really knows how many illegals are in the US. They don’t have a clue as to who they are or their intent. One of these people is far too many.
From about 1999 till this year the ling leftists have used the “11 million illegals” stat. It’s all bullshit. They used up all their credibility during the fake impeachments, phony “Russia-Russia-Russia” crap, the stolen election, the two years of fukin Covid lies and all the Hunter related lying.
Where did the drugs in the WH come from? Any guesses? But the SS covers up for the corrupt biden junta. But we’re supposed to believe all this crap just like H or dowd does. Just because they are fucking morons does not mean we all are.
So what’s the accurate number of undocumented in the US?
There is no credible evidence of a stolen election.
Coke in the WH? Maybe leftovers from Don Jr?
Don’t be a moron fizzuckin’ moron like L.G.
It bears repeating. If immigrants were a net benefit to the USA, no one would care if they were legal or not.
So, evidence that immigrants were a net benefit to the US would change the conservative position on illegal immigrants.
It bears repeating.
