Mayor Eric Adams' agreement, announced Friday, to limit the time migrants can stay in shelters at taxpayers' expense, is smoke and mirrors. It's designed to fool you into thinking he's solving a problem when he's actually caving to the migrant industrial complex.
Notorious gangs like Tren de Aragua and MS-13 recruit from the shelters. How convenient that taxpayers pay to house these gangs' lackeys. In October, Adams imposed a 30-day limit on adult migrants but wound up in court when Legal Aid and the Coalition challenged him. A long negotiation ensued, ending with Friday's agreement. Since 1981, Legal Aid and the Coalition have fought successfully to impose a 'right to shelter' on New York.
'right to shelter' for anyone who shows up on Gotham's doorsteps means New Yorkers who want sanitation services, police and fire protection, and other city amenities go to the back of the line. Their services get cut to pay for sheltering migrants. Adams needs to battle aggressively, up through the highest courts, to get that 'right' reexamined. Only New York has a 'right to shelter,' and it makes the city the top destination for migrants.
Expect hundreds of thousands more to see these welcome signs and come. Who wouldn't? On Sunday, Adams praised the city's 'responsible policies' and blamed 'Republican extremists' for the border crisis. Sorry, Mr. Mayor, but the crisis here in New York City is due to the lavish benefits local Democrats insist on offering 'new arrivals.' There's no whitewashing that.
