Mayor Adams warned Saturday that all New York City agencies may have to slash up to 15% from their budgets by the spring in response to the ever-rocketing costs of the migrant crisis.
All departments were told they will need to slash 5% from their budget by November, amounting to a several billion dollar haircut from the city-funded portion of Adams’ $107 billion spending plan. But if the city doesn’t get enough financial aid from the Biden administration or state legislators by early next year, Adams warned additional 5% cuts could come in both January and April.
“The simple truth is that longtime New Yorkers and asylum seekers will feel

Has Biden EVER explained his immigration policies? WHY are we taking in so many? And didn't he tell us this wouldn't cost us a dime? It is NOT humanitarian to destroy your own home to help your neighbor.

Why not just tax the rich some more? Make them pay their fair share! Or perhaps AOC can convince Amazon to relocate to NYC for that extra tax revenue. /S/
You might not be in this situation had ya not put these people up in 600$ per night hotels.
The fact is, that every demicrat decision regarding illegal immigration, border security, sanctuary status, lavish benefits, law enforcement, tax and spend policies have led to this entirely predictable predicament. Its not like we didn't warn ya'll.
But what's sad, is that in 14 months, New York will elect or re-elect Democrats in every single one of the statewide races. With fewer Republicans being elected, because their supporters have relocated south of the Mason Dixon line. So......enjoy the suck. It's just hilarious that New York and it's voters are incapable and unwilling to do what's necessary to turn things around.

A $1000 plane ticket home for 110,000 would be a lot less than $1.5 billion.

What are they so upset about? They WANTED this. They VOTED for this. Now they have it.
Embrace the suck, New York - and shut up.

Start sending all of them to Delaware. The second smallest state will soon be the most crowded. When Crazy Joe has 'new immigrants' sleeping in the beach chairs of his seaside Mansion he may wake up.

Geee...whoo'da thunk it?
Bid-em-gration is gonna cost everyday citizens as much or MORE than Bid-em-flation.
It's simple Bid-em-nomics.
When Biden and the Dems hand out Free Lunches(and school/medical/housing/transportation/phones and Lawyers)...it's the Locals that have to foot the bill to Buy Them.

$1.5 Billion divided by 110,000 is over $13,500 each. Not including the NYC cost per student of $31,500.
Each of these people was "sent there" because they had a "Sponsoring Family/organization" that signed on a dotted line. Dems all poo-poohed the Repubs mention of "Public Charge" laws/rulings/enforcement...every NYC Democrat pushed for all of these people to be brought in, and blocked any and every effort to stop them, enforce actual existing Laws

Yet not a one of these NY politicians suggests the obvious real solution, closing the borders.

Hey!! Captain America, Eric Adams --- you got yourself and the people of NYC into this quagmire and it's up to you to get them out so, put on your $1500.00 big boy trousers and start acting like a "Mayor" of a big city instead of a community activist trying to get the people to believe something they know is false, which makes them feel like they're being "played" once again by a devious and unscrupulous "Mayor" ie" does the name Deblasio strike a note of familiarity?

Start with the Mayor's office, his security detail and his shoe-shiners.

Notice that Adam’s is silent on the removal of the migrants (illegal aliens) from the USA in accordance with the US immigration laws. Instead it is evident he would be pleased as punch if Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats in DC who caused the so-called migrant (illegal alien) crisis by encouraging and inviting the crisis by ignoring the US Immigration laws from the get-go during the Obama era and the 2020 Democrat primaries, would simply appropriate and send him untold billions of federal dollars for use supposedly to hand out as welfare benefits to the migrants (illegal aliens) and the leftist and socialist Democrat aligned nongovernmental organizations that claim they are caring for the migrants (illegal aliens) in New York City. Now it is also being reported that Biden and the leftist and socialist Democrats want to assist the ever growing migrant (illegal alien) population to become employed in American jobs, an unlawful political policy that will surely diminish the wages of competing American workers, and will no doubt encourage and invite more mass uncontrolled illegal immigration on into the future.

Years ago, NYC issued an open invitation to anyone who claims to need "sanctuary." As long as NYC maintains that designation, it's not serious about correcting the mal-distribution of resources away from its own citizens, and to new, illegal arrivals. It's a choice, and thus far corrupt liberal politicians are unwilling to clean up after themselves. The unpleasant consequences belong to everyone OK with putting illegal aliens and their wants ahead of the needs and rights of US citizens. Wealth redistribution is the inevitable result of mass illegal immigration. Dems and some RINOs are tired of trying and failing to persuade Americans to go along with global government ending American sovereignty. So they're openly trying to dilute the American population with impoverished, uneducated new arrivals with voting rights (AKA citizenship) to end their obligation to serve the American people. Not the kind of "leadership" that leads to freedom, but one designed to snatch it away before the abused and confused population can catch its breath.

Hey New York, I have a cost-effective solution for you. Instead of paying for hotels, buy them all a one-way ticket back to their country of origin. We don't need millions more unskilled people.

NYC do cut the fool's salary and throw him out. No one in NY needs a jerk running around in cheap pimp suits, hanging out every night, and who has no clue how to run NYC. You do not need this Adams vegetable. BTW, how much money is he getting on the side from the federal money that is never enough????

Not wasting any tears over this city, but how can 110K more people cause a 15% hit to the budget? Those hotels must be real expensive.
Someone should ask the mayor just how long the taxpayers are going to support these people.
What is the plan? (Hint: There isn't one.)
