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.
