New York City is spending about $387 per day per migrant to provide food and shelter to the 64,800 migrants in the city, according to data from NYC City Hall.
February’s number is down $5 from an October count when the city was housing 65,400 migrants. That number peaked in November, hitting $391 per day per migrant. These numbers do not reflect the cost of other services like medical care and education.
“In the last two months, Mayor Adams has laid out plans to save billions of taxpayer dollars as New York City manages a national humanitarian crisis, and the numbers show that our efforts are working,” a City Hall spokesperson told The New York Post Tuesday.
He also said the city expects to “save $2.3 billion by next summer.” Mayor Eric Adams is looking to bring the cost per day per migrant down to $352 by fiscal year 2025.
Adams called on city agencies to cut spending to an initial 5% last November — and then a further 5% in January in response to the migrant crisis.
“Commercial hotels are an incredibly expensive way to provide shelters,” Department of Social Services commissioner Molly Wasow Park said.
The average price for a three-night stay in a New York City hotel is $524.
Ow that they have been fed there will be deadly riots when anyone tries to cut the,pm off. Which was the democrat party plan. They are here to stay and will never contribute to anything.
I say, not one red cent for any invader! Let churches feed the Refugees not US Government. We need no lay about consumer class to just east us out of house and home. We will need those young men in Uniform for the defense of the nation—to mount the Meat wave attacks on Chinese robot armies, and to fight in Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle east and South America in the soon to be World War.
How much does NYC spend on homeless vets?
About the same. And there aren’t that many of them. Most homeless in NY, veterans or not, have mental and substance abuse issues.
“$387 per day?
I could live on less than half that.
And I do....................”
A lot of people... that ‘have’ paid into the system... on Social Security don’t even get that much from “Big Government”. But then, when you’re trying to Cloward-Piven a nation as big and as robust as America into complete collapse, the Marxist goons are going to have to try harder.
They’re probably already behind on their agenda by a decade. And if Trump gets back in (requiring a bloody miracle)... they’ll all be “Curses, foiled again”, no doubt... for at least another four years.
