*is >

Lots of them seem to have forgotten >

Have you read the articles on this? Texas is shipping migrants to homeless shelters, and NYC can’t keep up. NYC has a legal obligation to house anybody who needs it. There is physically not enough space for more homeless people in NYC, who in this case happen to be migrants. >

Bet you there's more than enough airbnbs for everybody. >

I think the Airbnb owners would protest the government seizing their property :( >

Perhaps simply taxing them for using residential property for commercial means? >

They do. They’re taxed at hotel rates in NYC >

There's "no room" only for anyone who's poor, really. That's really the issue. These cities today are for rich people only thanks to housing prices, and they're the only ones who leaders care about. If the migrants had wealth no one would tell this to them. It's only poors who are not welcomed or are told there's "no room." >

That doesn't really address the issue at hand. Where should they live and who will pay for their housing? Hotels and landlords have their own bills to pay. We can't expect them to give people free housing. Even if housing prices were cut in half, that money would still have to come from somewhere. Would you be willing to pay rent for an immigrant family? They'll probably be able to find a job eventually, but it will be at least a few months of you paying their rent before they're financially stable. >

You can say the same for the rising homeless population in NYC and elsewhere. At the end of the day the issue is lack of affordable housing and the poor being pushed out of the city. My point is this wouldn't be an issue now if leadership had cared about making the city affordable. What is the mayor doing to make it so people can afford to live in the city without straining it?
When immigrants flowed into NYC by the millions over a century ago, they found countless cheap, often shoddy and decrepit but cheap, apartments to live in. The fact NYC can't handle an influx of even a few thousand such poor people today is a sign of it both becoming a city for the rich only now. A city which can't handle even this modest number of migrants is a shame honestly. >

1,000s of apartments be removed from availability to become airbnbs doesn’t help >

If the US doesn't have a birthrate high enough to supply corporations with cheap labor, then they will have to rely on immigration. Not sure why republicans are against it. >

Trash title. Read the article.
Yes, he says this. And it's being taken out of context to make him seem anti-immigrant, but what he's referring to is the bus loads of immigrants being illegally sent to NYC on busses.
They're going to be out $2 billion because of what they're already doing, and can't afford to keep maintaining this political ploy by these lunatics.

And in that way, the New York Mayor serves (and reveals) his function and allegiance to capital and private property above all else. >

Huh?  As a NYC taxpayer this is a problem. What do you think the city should do differently? >

Agreed. I think some of these people don’t understand nyc. They think migrants cost no money and we have infinite places to live. To acknowledge simple math and homeless people is not something they want to consider, they’d rather view all opposition to migrants as exclusively grounded in racism >

If you’ve been to New York City, you’d understand he isn’t exaggerating about the housing crisis >

NYC would have plenty of room for migrants if it would just build more housing and not let nimbys sandbag the process >

Have you ever been to NYC? It’s packed with high rises. There is no room to build horizontally, only vertically. We are not talking about the state here man. And why is it the mayors job to raise taxes on the city residents to care for all the immigrants that Texas and Florida GQP governors are shipping to blue  cities. You are being played when you should be pissed at the federal gov for doing nothing to help along with Texas and Florida exacerbating the problem. >

A fuckload of the NYC metro (and city proper) is completely inundated with suburban-style sprawl, massive stroads, and single-family-only zoning. Robert Moses really fucked the city up and doomed it to an unsustainable and short-of-housing future. 
Let’s rip out some highways, upzone, and get some more housing built. It’s possible, but nobody has the political will to upset the NIMBYs. >

Who gonna pay for it? You? You ready to pay more city taxes? >

Sprawl and single-family-only zoning actually ends up costing a municipality more to maintain than denser zoning. 
It doesn’t cost anything to upzone. It’s literally changing the rules for developers to follow to let them build more dense units and mixed-use spaces. It doesn’t cost a municipality literally anything to upzone besides the cost of the legislators’ time. >

Nothing stopping you from petitioning your own property to be rezoned for this use, but something tells me you want to expropriate other people's property. >

So if you didn’t actually ready the article, here is the part where you should get mad at Texas and Florida. The mayor of NYC is angry that the feds are not controlling where migrants are going. The mayor estimates that the influx of immigrants will cost NYC residents 2 billion dollars a year, which they do not have. So is it really fair for everyone in America to throw stones at this guy while letting the GQP conduct economic warfare  against blue states? The answer is no. The mayors job is to govern those that live in the city, not take on the burden of housing immigrants from Florida and Texas. That is a federal responsibility to facilitate. Stop making this a race issue. The GQP are playing us liberals like a fiddle right now. >

Then why doesn’t he go against the fact that Florida and Texas are the ones fucking him over? Why doesn’t he mention that what Florida & Texas have done is unethical & immoral? The mayor of NYC knows exactly what he’s saying & how he’s wording it. 
Tired of people like you giving assholes like adams a free pass just because. >

The thing is, NYC touts itself as a sanctuary city, a city of second chances, and a city that will take in the poor and hungry. When the mayor (Eric Adams) makes a statement like that it detracts from the city's reputation and loses its own virtues. >

How much can he do though? There is a limit to the number of people they can keep. It should be the Federal government who organizes between the states. The mayor is just saying no one is acting with a clear plan. >

Idk man I just wish the migration thing got idk overhauled via legislation cause fuck am I tired of this “political” issue. We have the space / resources and room for migrants and immigration can be an economic multiplier - just our system is old and needs fixing. >

What does NYC have room for?   This guy may be a jerk, but isn’t this the city with thousands of working homeless???   Can we get a room and bed for every American citizen before we plan on throwing the next wave onto the street? >

Yet New Yorkers will vote this clown into office again. Just like Chicago keeps voting for Beetlejuice.
Maybe go for a lesser known candidate instead of jumping on the bandwagon and voting en masse because the party demands it. >

Makes sense. It is the most densely populated city in the United States. I don't know who looks at NYC and says, "Yeah, this place could use more people." >

Apparently the leaders believed this when they designated the city as a sanctuary city. 
Things not going well at home? Come suffer in the most crowded city in the US! >

NYC designating themselves as a "sanctuary city" was one of the worst things they did for themselves the past 7 years. >

As shitty as this is, I get it. NYC is under a massive housing shortage. Ya know where there's plenty of room for migrants? The gigantic state of Texas where they're all coming from! >

They are coming from Latin America. >

What I hear is, "New York is not given sufficient federal assistance to handle the immigrants that are being bussed in from the states that are using immigrants as political chess pieces, which seems like a really shit way of handling an admittedly complicated and fraught issue that, yes, the Federal government overall is struggling to handle." >

Saying “the Federal government overall is struggling to handle” implies that there has been any meaningful tactic and approach laid out by the federal government to attempt to handle the problem.
The only action the current administration has taken this far has been to attempt to repeal title 42 (which legally they should be able to do) but was blocked (not for relevant judicial reasons), but because it is almost unanimously agreed upon that the repeal of title 42 is the only thing holding back the flood gates.
Also if NYC can’t handle the immigration levels that they are seeing via charter bus, then border towns that are fractions of the size don’t have any hope so yes they are being used as political chess pieces…but it is also one of the few reasonable things these towns/states can do when they themselves don’t have the resources and bandwidth to handle the crisis. Both can be true at once and in this case I believe they both are true. >


State funding for border security grew from $110 million in 2008-2009 to nearly $3 billion for the 2022-2023 budget cycle

We should get that 3 billion. >

What’s your justification?
The latest numbers I could find are from October of 22 where Adams says more than 17000 people have been bussed from the border into the city.
Let’s say since October that number has doubled and NYC is now home to 35000 asylum seekers from the border.
In December El Paso saw an increase in crossings to 2400 per day. DHS estimates daily crossings would be 9000 - 14000 a day when title 42 is removed.
So by my math, El Paso, a city 1/13th the size of NYC is experiencing an influx of more migrants per month than have been sent in total to NYC over the past year.
El Paso is just one of the many border towns. So yea, if we do this “equitably” NYC would get a couple million at best. >

The problem is NYC has no place to put them either. Right now they are going in hotels. The cost of putting them up in hotels or rentals is 4x the price in NYC than El Paso or other smaller town in Texas. That’s a waste of tax payers money, unless of course, NYC is better at processing them than Texas as it looks likes Texas just doesn’t want to deal with them. In that case, give the border money to NYC and other blue states and let them handle it. Abbott had years and years to get a handle the problem, but it seems like he just uses it as a campaign issue he’ll fix the next time he’s elected. And voters of Texas believe him. >

what they should do is send them to old military bases for processing and then send in small groups to any counties that will take them in exchange for compensation.
this is what american used to do with asylum seekers. spread them all over. put them in schools to learn english and our history/culture. basic grammer/high school and then teach them trade and put them to work...
sadly most of the jobs have been sent to overseas and the rest done by immigrants legally brought in to do them andor increasing done by machines/ai >

New York has an uncanny ability to elect the bottom-of-the-barrel worst Democrats every single time >

All I heard was oink oink oink >

I hate this mayor >

That will probably get Abbot and DeSantis to send him their next load >

What a fucking moron. And Ellis Island is an amusement park! >

Still can’t believe we had a few fantastic mayoral candidates on the primary ballot and my fellow dems went for this elephant is donkey’s clothing. >

This is what "blue no matter who" gets you, for anyone who isn't aware yet. The guy's a republican in every way but party registration. >

But he proclaimed NYC a sanctuary city and said any and all are welcome. I guess he didn't expect to be called on it >

Adams reminds us that NYC primary voters are just as dumb as those in Confederate states. >

Democrats when they have to deal with the migrant influx instead of crying about how horrible it is that we were building a wall in Texas thousands of miles away from them. Love how quickly they turn on it. It’s hilarious I hope Texas keeps busing them to New York DC and all these other places where these fucking hypocrites lives >

Meanwhile in reality there are countless empty apartments being hoarded by rich people and airbnb pests. Im not surprised that a pretend new yorker like adams is ignoring the housing crisis. Hes a real shame for the city. >

Yep. But mentioning the empty housing and the fact we could house every homeless man, woman and child in this country is apparently “communist”/“socialist.” >

Just another fucking cop. >

Texas Governor is going to have a field day with that statement >

New York Mayor is GOP >

Wrong.  He’s Dem.  Flip flopped, Dem to 1997 then REP to 2001, back to current DEM >

There’s no room in NYC that the middle class workers can afford to stay. Same with most big cities. >

Why did New York vote for this guy anyway? >

From the city that brought you America’s Mayor, Rudy Giuliani? >

To be fair, it’s the right-wing politicians who are behind sending these people to NYC. It’d make much more sense, if the idea is to spread the migrants around, to send some to Little Rock, some to Fargo, Grand Forks; Wichita, Des Moines, Tulsa, Lincoln, Omaha etc. Sending them to the most expensive city in America is a recipe for failure & these republicans obviously know this. 
Clearly the republicans think this is funny & don’t care how many migrants are harmed throughout this process. >

“It would make much more sense to send them to red states than blue states” >

Why wouldn’t it? We’re one country. Federal money doesn’t know the difference. Before Trump showed up we didn’t have any of this red/blue nonsense. 
Whether you like it or not, unless you have lots of money and higher education, chances are you won’t be able to afford living in a large city like NYC, SF, LA and now almost any large metro area. If you don’t have much, you’ll have to go where it doesn’t cost much to live. And those cities I mentioned are probably the lowest-cost cities in the country. 
Just because you go to a ‘blue state/city’ doesn’t mean you move right in to public housing and sign up for all these other programs. It means you get on the list and wait 10-15 years because there’s about 25,000 other people ahead of you in line. >

So we should make room...  send an inmate from the NY correctional facilities to the mansions of Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis for every migrant they traffick to NYC, DC and other cities...
Republicans call these migrants illegals, rapists, criminals, bad hombres etc so by their logic we'd only be trading criminals for criminals. >

If Reddit thinks he’s stupid, the man must be a genius. 
But seriously, if you live in a big city, you realize there’s a population crunch right now. There needs to be infrastructure that simply isn’t there. >

Unpopular opinion: you can get from anywhere in the third world to America with about $500. If you have open borders, it’s viable for 2 billion people from poorer countries to travel to America and become illegal immigrants. This would immediately reduce America to third world status. America needs to prevent illegal immigration and it is childish for Blue cities that live away from the influx to pretend they are more free , liberal or fair by being sanctuary cities. We need to scrap this sanctuary city nonsenses, and we need to reform all immigration law including Political asylum. It’s outdated and increasingly irrelevant. Virtually no one should be granted politicos asylum anymore. (Billions of people are eligible under the current laws if they can afford $500 to reach the US). The way to improve the world is not to have everyone move to the rich west. Let’s grow up. We need a democratic (big and small D) movement for much firmer borders. >

I'm pretty sure the entire City of New York is nothing but Immigrants. If there were no room, you would have to move about 7 Million People out of the City. >

Why does he keep calling it ‘his city’. He’s a public servant. He doesn’t own New York. >

The same mayor who took his salary in Bitcoin? >

In New York? He said that without realizing the irony clearly. >

Lots of people not actually reading the article, as usual >

Bro what?! >

I guess hes going to take down the statue of liberty next. >

I dont understand why people are attacking this, they dont get the money to build the shelters for the thousands of folks who are supposed to await their trial for immigration. The states that are bussing them do. They cant get jobs or buy homes  and its the governments job to house them.
Idk what the fed can do to move the funds to new york from the states bussing, but they needes to do it 6 months ago. >

Well.
You better change the statue of liberty I guess.
Since, it's now lies. >

Oh look the former pig is a heartless asshole. Fuck him. He should change side and just declare he is a republican and be done with it. >

I'm still confused as to how a black Democratic mayor had sounded nothing but like a Republican since taking office.
I have a feeling that the reason he got elected was because people saw "black" and "Democrat" and voted down the ballot 🤷 >

I think it was the Ranked Choice Voting system they switched to that year. There were like 5 progressives trying to out progress each other and then there was Adams being the only one in the center. Anyone not into the progressive side ranked him on top. He didn't win by a lot, but the progressive diluted their votes with the wide field. >

Is he removing the Statue of Liberty ? >

He’s giving it to Jersey. >

It is already sort of "in" Jersey >

How about we put ‘em up in all of those unoccupied mega-luxury apartments (money laundering shelters) >

The US took in 1mm migrants in 2022. 40K should be manageable for one of the largest cities in the US. If not, what fighting chance do smaller cities face with the other 960K? >

I can't wait to vote this asshole out. (For the record, he was never in my rankings on the mayoral ballot). As much as I agree ranked choice voting can solve a lot of problems, sometimes it leaves enough room for a turd to sneak through and win, as above. >

That’s all intentional. Republicans have been switching their party affiliation to fck up our primaries.
Ranked choice voting was implemented to help republicans win. 
They’re working now on having us have open primaries with a group called Final Five. Which is almost the entirely same people who tried the same thing previously with Unite NY. The main people involved in both campaigns -Sal Albanese and Yiatin Chu- say they’re democrats but that’s part of another rightwing campaign here. >

That’s just begging for bus loads of emigrants from Texas. >

Why do New Yorkers always vote for such excrement? >

Who wants to tell him >

New Yorkers voted for this idiot. So they get what they get. There tons of better liberal candidates than him. >

So much for liberal nyc >

Unless your native ,your all migrants >

In the city that has been literally built by migrants? >

Remind me who built the city ? "Immigrants". And so where his family.
It's literally our former port of entry & main port of trade. Free circulation in a free city is why NYC became the large center and economic engine it still is today.
Guy's a dumbass. Litterally trying to deny the same opportunities he had to others. But hypocrisy, stupid racism and greed are certainly us conservative values. >

You know when I lost a lot of faith in the future of this country?
When I had a conversation with someone who said in response to me saying... 
"Whatever happened to Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free?  It's literally in the script of the Statue of Liberty"
His response
"It says no vacancy now" >

Ummm… Ellis Island? 
The Statue of Liberty is literally a monument to welcoming migrants to NY. Immigrants are literally the reason NY is (was?) the most vibrant city in the US, maybe the world. >

Sounds like what a cop would say. Can't believe y'all elected this dumbass. >

Keep shipping them there >

Okay but you’re gonna have to change the inscription on the Statue of Liberty, maybe add a neon “no vacancy” sign, because false advertising is against the law. >

Eric Adams is a corporatist pinkertonphile and merely thinks he's black. >

yeah? isnt that obvious? 😂 theres barely any room for tax paying citizens >

NYC should bus homeless American citizens to Texas and Florida with promises of good jobs and housing. Texas and Florida cares about true American citizens. Shouldn’t be any issues, as long as their American citizens. >

Adams is  shamefully awful Mayor! >

....the city literally has segments dedicated to different demographics. little italy, little china, a portions of it that are russian, cuban etc. the city is made up of almost nothing but immigrants. this statement is so incredibly stupid. >

Republican wearing a Democrat suit, shows his stripes. Again. >

This is why I didn't want a cop for mayor of our greatest city. The city made what it is because of immigrants. To be fair, America treated those immigrants like trash, too. >

Then if New York city will not accept new immigrants they should cover, move or tear down the Statue of Liberty in the harbor. >

He's probably right.  And it's the point Abbot and DeSantis have been making with the bus load of migrants.  
The areas in America that have infinite space, don't have the resources; and the areas with the resources, don't have the space. >

Housing in NYC is fucked, but this is the exact answer that douchenozzles from Florida and Texas want. >

I 200000% would've rather had yang over this blue-republican conservative mother fucker. >

Literally all he says are Republican talking points. Why the fuck did anyone vote for this pig? >

because republicans have been voting in democrat’s primaries >

No room for migrants

He is going to run for president as Republican >

He’ll run as a Dem. His views are in line with most of the aristocracy when the world’s downtrodden actually knock at their door. >

New York was literally built under migrants >

Poor New York ;( >

All the liberal cities are fed up w homeless people, they made it comfortable so even more came. >

Yeah, how terrible it is to make it so life sucks a little less for the people suffering at the bottom from late stage capitalism.  /s
Would you mind naming 5 “conservative cities”? >

The only things that comes close are the hermetically sealed country club-esque gated communities we see for the ultra wealthy, where the poor simply don't exist because they are excluded from the space. But these are only small bubbles. You can't build a functioning city on the conservative/libertarian/ancap worldview because it would go to shit in about 5 minutes when it isn't being maintained by "the help" brought in from elsewhere.
Maybe Dubai since they have entire countries to bring in "help" from by deception, followed by coercion into slave labor. >

Are we sure this dude is a democrat? >

This is old school democrat beliefs— remember that the Dems used to be a pro-union party and organized labor until the last 15-20 years was very, very anti-immigrant because immigration decreases wages in the industries they take jobs in. >

Just a small suggestion, but maybe if the luxury apartments currently sitting empty thanks to money laundering could be offered to the middle class under a subsidized rent scheme, you could move a hell of a lot of working professionals into the city. Then you'd have inexpensive housing in the boroughs for emergency situations like this (not that NYC or NYS should have to bear the burden of Abbot's political games). At least, people could be temporarily sheltered as they're being processed and perhaps offered jobs in places which are struggling to find workers. >

I feel like New Yorkers have been saying that about the latest batch of immigrants since at LEAST the 1800s. >

I know my Irish and Italian ancestors heard it when they came through NY a few generations back. >

Good for him! >

He's not saying there is no room for migrants.
" The mayor of New York traveled to the Mexican border city of El Paso on Sunday and declared that "there is no room in New York" for busloads of migrants being sent to America's most populous city. (from other cities who are playing political games with human beings)
In recent months the Republican governors of Florida and Texas have sent thousands of migrants seeking sanctuary in the U.S. to cities run by Democratic politicians, including New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C.
Adams's trip to El Paso comes after he said the migrant influx into New York could cost the city as much as $2 billion, at a time when the city is already facing a major budget shortfall. >

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses...
