Neither President Biden nor Gov. Kathy Hochul have offered to pick up New York City’s $600 million tab for housing the migrants who’ve flooded in from the southern border — because “no one wanted to talk about” it during “campaign season,” Mayor Eric Adams said Monday.
“We think that the campaign season is over, it’s time for people to focus on this issue, we need to be reimbursed,” he said during an unrelated news conference at City Hall.. “The governor has been a real partner. She sat in the room with me, with the president, when the president came here to respond to the hurricane in Puerto Rico and in the Dominican Republic,” he added. “The governor was extremely vociferous around that ‘we need to have a real solution at the border’ and that ‘we need to get funding here.'”Photo by Michael M.

It was not able to provide a separate figure for how much it would cost City Hall to provide them with social services beyond housing, saying the “the number of people arriving continues to evolve.”Matthew McDermott
