Must have been to good of a resting stop for the migrants.

A bipartisan City Council coalition wants the White House to declare a federal emergency because of the asylum-seeker crisis — a move they said should free up funding for the five boroughs to house, feed and educate migrants.
In a letter to President Biden and other top DC pols, six Republican and two moderate Democrats in the “Common Sense Caucus” said such “bold steps” are needed immediately to refill city coffers being drained to provide essential services to migrants, with no end in sight.
They said an emergency declaration could cut through red tape and help get Adams $1 billion in federal assistance he estimates the city needs to deal with a flood of migrants that has topped 30,000 in 2022.
“These services, which have already cost our taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, are only growing as more buses of migrants arrive each day. We are asking the President to declare the asylum seeker crisis an emergency so that FEMA may reimburse New York City for the entire costs of addressing it,” Councilman Robert Holden, D-Queens, wrote in the letter.
A City Hall request for the funding to the Federal Emergency Management Agency is pending.

There can’t be a migrant crisis and a closed border at the same time.
A crisis they created and an emergency means we want more money
Build and enforce the Wall.
Close the border.
Declare war on the Cartels.
We gotta charter at least 100 more buses and get them running 24/7 from “Da Border” up to NYC, DC and of course Baw-stahn.
They been screamin “Waciss!” at us in the West so long, now let them handle the onslaught. AZ, CA, TX all full up of violent morons from NarcoLandia.
New York must be running low on "Migrants", ... the Governors of Florida and Texas can help by Busing more "Migrants" to New York!
Get busy, guys!!
Just change the name of the city to “New Kiev”.
Hey, you got a good idea there!
Invaders...not migrants.
The United States of America, now FUBAR!
I like how they’re being called “asylum-seekers” now. As if giving them a different name will actually make them that. What are they seeking asylum from?
It’s two years too late to call it an emergency crisis.
Apparently there is no homeless crisis in NYC.
Or drug problem.
Or carjacking problem.
Or rape problem.
Or murder problem.
Or smash and grab problem.
Or mass transit crime problem.
Or………..
Nancy gushing like an zitty adolescent about the greasy guy.

Yeah. It’s all fun and games when the illegals are staying in Texas and Arizona. Then they invade New York, and that’s a problem.
Who needs help most, New York City or El Paso?
