New York's police officers will face overtime cuts - despite increased crime - as the city continues to struggle with the financial toll of the migrant crisis that has overwhelmed the Big Apple.
Upwards of 110,000 migrants are littered across the New York area, with most arriving in the last 18 months from the southern border. New York City Mayor Eric Adams has warned the issue could cost taxpayers $12million and destroy the city.
Jacques Jiha, the city's budget director, has told not just the police department, but fire, sanitation and corrections to drastically reduce overtime.

NYC doesn't have enough cops to begin with. Cutting their overtime will result in even more crime. How stupid can one get? Get rid of your sanctuary status, you NYC idiots.

Schools jammed with kids who don't speak English and are probably in the wrong grade.
Hospitals and emergency rooms flooded with patients who have no way to pay.
People getting kicked out of their hotels to make room for illegals.
Not enough cops, because no one wants to be a cop in a city that hates cops.
Had enough yet, voters?

Well, whatever you do, don’t tell Biden to close the southern border, because that’s a Democrat ‘value.’

With all of that money you’re spending on providing everything illegals need to survive in your city, you could easily use it to sent them back to their home countries.

NYC doesn't have to do a thing...except cut off the freebies. Then the migrants will self-disperse to other blue locations for the hand outs.
No free shelter, no free food, no free clothes, no breaking line to get a job. Just give'em nothing and save billions.

Budget crunch during a crisis? First thing to slash is the cops? Not the party budget, the bike lane construction, not the beautification department, - slash the police first. This is what we yokels call stirring a bucket of poop to make it stink worse. They WANT the crisis.

Sob, break out the violins, that after reaffirming Democrat conrtol of NYC and eternal love for the Biden/Harris administration. Several hundred aliens could be housed on the grounds of Gracie Mansion. The ghost of Ed Koch won't like it, though.

So they're cutting funds and services to the citizens of NY to help fund the illegal immigrants who swarmed our border under fake president Biden. This tells me something about where the loyalties of liberals lie.
Can anybody tell me why a voter could be so stupid as to vote for a democrat...ever?.

In answer to poster # 2's question: No, and they'll never get enough. They will continue to vote for Democrats and blame everyone but themselves for their increasing woes.
