Those adults who get kicked out but still require help have to head to a “reticketing center” in East Village
to request a new bed. They are first offered a free one-way ticket to anywhere in the world — though
many turn down the deal.
As of earlier this month, roughly 24% asylum-seekers sought a new
bed in a city shelter after being given
of
their eviction notice. see also

administration officials told the outlet. Meanwhile, 2,261 migrants took
up the city’s offer and have headed elsewhere in the Empire State.
The stay limits were implemented by Hizzoner because of the crippling number of migrants flooding into
the city.

“More than 150,100 asylum seekers have come through our intake system since the spring of 2022, all of
whom have been offered vital care, including shelter, food, access to medical care, casework services,
legal assistance, and more,” a City Hall rep said in a statement Monday.

Migrant families with children are spotted earlier this month outside Manhattan’s Roosevelt Hotel — the Big Apple’s main
intake center.

“But, with more than 67,200 migrants still currently in our care, and thousands more continuing to arrive
every week, we have used every possible corner of New York City and are, quite simply, out of good
options to shelter migrants.
“As we’ve said for months, we’re going to continue to treat people humanely, make adjustments as
necessary, and do everything in our power to avoid having families with children be forced to sleep on the
streets.”

NYC and Biden flies in thousands more. Its a never ending stream
flies out the illegal aliens
ith 10,000 illegals crossing our Southern border A DAY. Instead of welcoming them, NYC
hould do as some Chicago suburbs are doing, pass an ordinance prohibiting bus companies
dropping off illegal aliens in the first place. Of course this will never happen with our
elected City Council.

Hey NY POST, why do you continure your pro-illegal alien slant? Why does the NY POST
ontinue to portray these law breakers that crossed into the U.S. illegally as oppressed, asylum-
eeking migrants? Less than 5% of these illegals are legitimate asylum seekers. Also, seeking
doesn't grant you entry to the country. Asylum applications must be made OUTSIDE of
U.S., but Biden and the Democrats ignore this, as does the NY POST.

Better to spend a one off sum and relocate them in cheaper places than keeping them in
