New York Cuts Money From Schools to Pay for Migrants

"It’s the right thing to do for the migrants and the city of New York”...

Remember all the outrage over the school that kicked out students into ‘remote’ classes to make way for housing migrants?

That’s the literal state of the New York State budget.

Gov. Hochul has unveiled a budget with $2.4 billion allocated for caring for the mass of illegal alien migrant invaders.

While the state budget raises that amount by $500 million, it’s proposing to cut funding for schools in Long Island.

A total of 44 Long Island school districts would see decreased state funding next year, according to Gov. Kathy Hochul’s proposed 2025 executive budget.

Hochul discussed the proposed budget Tuesday in Albany. State budget officials say the change to amend funding measures is meant to help districts that need more funding.

“If you have a finite amount of resources a year, you have less and less to provide for schools that are growing or schools that have a higher need,” says New York state budget director Blake Washington.

It’s funny how it’s a more conservative part of the state that’s getting the ax. And state Republicans aren’t happy.

“Any cuts to education, obviously, will never go over well, either with the districts themselves or the (State) Legislature,” said Assemb. Edward Ra (R-Franklin Square).

Assembly Minority Leader Will Barclay (R-Pulaski) said he was pleased Hochul would push Washington, but said he believes New York should reconsider designating itself as a “sanctuary” and added: “I’m not thrilled to have to spend any money on the migrant crisis.”

But New York State has no moral responsibility to the children of taxpayers, but does have one to every illegal alien invader.

“We’re doing this not just because it’s the right thing to do for the migrants and the city of New York,” Hochul said. “We also know that companies won’t do business in New York if there are thousands of people sleeping on the streets, or the quality of life is dramatically impacted because the city is forced to cut essential services.”

If you keep housing migrants, you’ll have more coming and more panhandling, robbing and assaulting people, not less. And companies will go on fleeing.

Foreign illegal aliens are more important than America’s children under Joe Pedo’s rule. Sad.

How many times have taxes been raised to pay for schools? Which means the taxes were for schools. Moving that money to another area means that it is not being used for schools and therefore should be rebated to the taxpayer.

Hey New Yorkers. Elections have consequences.

NY could have had the conservative Lee Zeldin for governor. Instead, they chose this absolutely insane woman who is doing her best to bring the entire state to its knees. She is just plain nuts! A full blown case of libtardism. What country would take a huge amount of money from taxpayers to pay for the needs of illegal criminal invaders? Even to the point of depriving taxpayers' kids from attending their school so illegals can be housed in the building?

Have they taken a look at San Francisco and seen what "more panhandling, robbing and assaulting" people do to a city?

Allocating tax dollars to invaders is like feeding pigeons.. Stop food stamps, welfare, free ( to the illegals ) housing, and such to the illegal aliens and the invasion ends..

I wonder how many of those 10 million “migrants” will end up homeless in the streets?

I suspect a great deal of them.

Agree. This is why my 6 yr old granddaughter goes to a out Memphis-controlled school. She scored top grades and was just named Student of the Month. And she is just PreK.

Just think of the number of teachers who are going to have to be hired to speak our new Heinz 57 languages. They won’t have time to teach the kids anything. Between learning to speak English and deciding what gender they want to be, there will be no time for learning.
