NY Gov. Hochul backs NYC bid to suspend ‘right to shelter’ mandate amid illegal immigrant influx

JTN: New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul has endorsed suspending the Big Apple’s “right to shelter” mandate amid an influx of illegal immigrants that has strained New York City’s infrastructure and flummoxed the local government.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has sought to suspend the law and warned that the influx of new arrivals threatens to “destroy New York City.” In 1981, a court ordered that the city provide temporary housing to anyone upon request, according to the Associated Press. In May of this year, the city enacted a “Homeless Bill of Rights” that reiterated the mandate.

Adams has challenged the mandate in New York’s Supreme Court. During a CNN appearance this week, Hochul endorsed Adams’ efforts, saying repeal “is the right thing to do” and insisted the mandate was not intended to address a massive influx of illegal immigrants. more

  1. I’m waiting for the NGOs and ambulance-chasing lawyers to show up to back the illegals and sue NY for their “right to shelter”.
    NYers, you have to embrace the suck that is your life now.

  2. No doubt she’s just marking time so she can find a way to dump dumb democrats self-inflicted migrant flood on other Americans anywhere else, who won’t have a workable plan either. No problem as long as she has an out to tell MSM to sell as to how hard she worked to save NYC from open borders single handed.

  3. They will be in everyone’s burg soon. Big cities will absorb a lot of them but there are far, far too many to be held just in the major cities. The schadenfreude of watching the virtue signaling leftist scum get their empty moralizing shoved painfully up their asses will be supplanted with the exhaustion of having to guard everything you value 24/7/365 or have some ‘immigrants’ take it to pawn, because they’re ‘hungry’.
    But, we let the queer 0bama take office and we’re made to tolerate the senile pedophilic (queer) buffoon occupy the office, under the queer’s direction and WITH THE CONSENT OF OUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES, THE COURTS, THE MEDIA AND THE DEEP STATE that put him there.

    Queers are queers are queers and queers aren’t good for anything but being queers, they have no business directing anything normal people are concerned with… like our nation’s course.
