It was just a couple years ago that Hochul was super excited about illegal aliens

And now?
The migrant crisis in New York is so bad that even Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul is ramping up her attacks on US border policies, demanding “a limit on who can come across’’ and more agents to nab illegals.
Hochul targeted Congress in comments Sunday but still risked the wrath of the Biden administration as it grapples with the crisis wreaking mayhem in the Big Apple and across the country.
“It is too open right now,’’ Hochul flatly told CBS’s “Face the Nation’’ of the country’s southern border with Mexico — where a record-setting 260,000-plus migrants crossed over just last month.
It’s too open now that Sanctuary State New York is being over-run with illegals/migrants, especially in Democratic Party run cities.
Chicago grapples with housing crisis as record number of migrants arrive in the city
A record number of 36 buses, filled with asylum seekers, has arrived in Chicago since Saturday, with more than 15,000 new arrivals in the past year.
City leaders say the number one priority is getting migrants out of police stations where they’re sleeping.
Right now, the largest housing effort is a $29 million plan to establish tent base camps ahead of the winter. Governor JB Pritzker, however, says he has concerns that unused buildings aren’t being utilized first.
“With a lack of existing buildings, to put people in, i know the city has looked at this as one of its options, but I don’t think this is the only option,” Pritzker said.
Existing buildings, eh? Now they know what it’s like in border cities.
