"Mayor Eric Adams now wants to start paying every day New Yorkers to shelter migrants in their own homes – as the Big Apple struggles to find beds for the thousands of asylum seekers still flooding into the city."
- “There are residents who are suffering right now because of economic challenges. They have spare rooms. They have locales,” the mayor said, arguing his private residence proposal could put money back in the pockets of taxpayers.
- If the private residence plan went ahead, it could mean New Yorkers are being paid more to host a migrant than a foster parent is given to raise a child in the Empire State.
- Some homeowners were quick to rip the mayor’s plan as “nuts” and half-baked given the scarcity of details.
- who has owned their townhouse for 24 years, added migrants shouldn’t be getting a “free ride” when many New Yorkers “cannot afford a decent place of their own.”
- “Before you know it we’re going to get flooded with even more migrants.”
- NYC Council Republican leader Joe Borelli posted on social media: “What are the goals?
When do we stop paying? What is the off-ramp?”
