Mayor Eric Adams’ administration will soon start handing out pre-paid credit cards to migrant families being put up in Big Apple hotels, The Post has learned.
The $53 million pilot program, run by the New Jersey company Mobility Capital Finance, will provide asylum seekers arriving at the Roosevelt Hotel with the city cash to help them buy food, according to city records.
It’ll start with a group of 500 migrant families in short-term hotel stays and will replace the current food service offered there, according to City Hall.
The cards can only be used at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets and convenience stores — and migrants must sign an affidavit swearing they will only spend the funds on food and baby supplies or they will be kicked out of the program.
The Immediate Response Card initiative appears akin to the state’s food stamp program, dubbed SNAP, which provides lower-income New Yorkers with a credit card to cover the cost of meals, and will provide funds based on the same scale.
The amount on each card will vary depending on the size of the family and whether any income is coming in, according to the details of the contract. A family of four, for instance, could be provided nearly $1,000 each month, which comes out to $35 per day for food. Cards will get refilled every 28 days.

When will the blacks demand their free stuff or burn it to the ground.
I think they mean illegals not migrants
$106,000 per invading “family”.
...migrants must sign an affidavit swearing they will only spend the funds on food and baby supplies or they will be kicked out of the program.
Food and baby supplies that will be traded for booze, drugs... We've been playing this game for a long time now.
Death by a billion cuts…
What slush fund did this come from?
I’ll wait.
Completely illegal. Hang this retarded twerp.
Robbing the taxpayers and give it to leeches that will send it to their home country
Ah, the evolution of the language. I guess the next term will be "Aspiring Citizens".
so they didn’t come to the US to work and pay taxes ,LOL
Now we’re outright paying for our own destruction.
The cards can only be used at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets and convenience stores , so they’ll do like food stamps people , buy water dump it out and sell the bottles to get cash ,LOL
Come on NYC, you can do better. Pay 5 times that amount! Oh, and raise taxes on the tax payers. FEEL GOOD!
Then why are they complainin’ ‘bout the invasion?
Starve the vermin scum and let them freeze to death...
It is nice and warm in the countries they came from...
Why the hell not! Whether we like it or not those are the evil effing, SOB rats, future voters! Don’t effing kick yourself that they are going to be deported. They already have it all planned out. As you can tell by those bastards who walked away from being criminally charged with kicking and beating those New York police. What kind of an effing judicial system do we have here. This is sending a dangerous message to ALL those illegals! Mark my words come 2024 they will be eligible to vote! Don’t think for one minute they’re gonna be stashed away in some rec center or in a tent city somewhere they’re going to be living the high life while ordinary, homeless Americans and veterans can’t even get an apartment or help from the government. This is how they’re gonna strap the illegal invaders down like they did the black community! It is all planned out. Don’t think for one minute they don’t know what the hell they’re doing they do it’s all planned, strategized and moving swimmingly .
