New York Spends $5 Billion on Illegal Aliens as Services to Americans Are Slashed
New York Spends $5 Billion on Illegal Aliens as Services to Americans Are Slashed

The border crisis in the United States has reached catastrophic levels under the Biden-Harris administration. Millions of illegal aliens poured across the southern border, yet Democrats do nothing.

This uncontrolled influx of migrants has led to widespread job loss for American workers, the depletion of public resources, and a surge in crime in communities across the nation. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who have consistently pushed for more lenient immigration policies, are to blame for this crisis.

Biden and Harris’ failure has allowed millions of illegal aliens to enter the country, many of whom are now competing with Americans for jobs, housing, and social services.

While the administration has attempted to paint this as a humanitarian issue, the reality is that millions of illegal aliens are taking jobs that would otherwise go to American workers. This is particularly devastating for low-income Americans, who are now forced to compete with migrants who work for lower wages.

At the same time, blue cities have welcomed hundreds of thousands of migrants. Democrats slashed city budgets to take care of illegal aliens. And now, one of the biggest cities in America is outed for how much they are spending on these aliens.

From Just the News:
Migrant-related costs in New York City are racing to $5 billion, which includes about $2 billion on housing, according to the local government’s online asylum-seeker funding tracking tool.

The city has spent $4.88 billion so far on migrant services through fiscal years 2023 and 2024, according to the New York Post.

Projections by Mayor Eric Adams’ administration indicate the cost could double to $10 billion over the three year period ending June 30, 2025.

Democrat-Run Cities Struggling to Support Migrants

As the number of illegal aliens in the country continues to swell, Democrat-run cities are struggling to cope with the influx. These cities, which have often touted themselves as “sanctuary cities,” are now finding that the resources they once offered are being stretched to the breaking point. New York City, for example, has become a focal point of the migrant crisis, with local officials scrambling to find ways to accommodate tens of thousands of migrants.

The situation in New York City is a stark reminder of the consequences of the Biden-Harris administration’s immigration policies. Mayor Eric Adams has repeatedly warned that the city is reaching its breaking point. The cost of providing services to migrants has skyrocketed to unsustainable levels. The city’s migrant-related costs are racing toward $5 billion, including about $2 billion spent on housing alone. These figures, provided by the local government’s online asylum-seeker funding tracking tool, paint a grim picture of the financial strain the city is under.

New York City’s Migrant Crisis Costs Could Double

The New York Post recently reported that the city has already spent $4.88 billion on migrant services through fiscal years 2023 and 2024. This staggering amount includes the cost of housing, healthcare, education, and other essential services. Mayor Adams cut funding from city services to accommodate illegal aliens. But the crisis is far from over. Projections indicate that the cost could double to $10 billion over the three-year period ending June 30, 2025.

The taxpayers of New York City are shouldering this financial burden. These Americans are already struggling to make ends meet in one of the most expensive cities in the world. The strain on public services is palpable, with schools, hospitals, and social services overwhelmed by the sheer number of people in need. Americans are seeing their needs pushed aside to accommodate those who entered the country illegally.

A Wake-Up Call

Biden and Harris’ border crisis has hammered the welfare of millions of Americans. That’s especially true for those in blue cities. But when will these residents wake up and admit Democrats are to blame? The only way things will improve is if these illegals are deported and the border is closed. We know Democrats will never do that; they are intentionally letting in these aliens—to exploit them for cheap labor and free votes.

The only way Americans will be saved is if they wake up and start voting these liberals out of office. Biden and Harris need to go. So does Eric Adams, Kathy Hochul, and every other local Democrat who is putting illegals ahead of Americans. That will take voters to admit they are partly to blame because they voted for these crooks. But will blue city voters be honest enough to admit that?

Key Takeaways:

  • New York City will spend $5 billion on Biden and Harris’ illegal aliens.
  • The city has slashed services and budgets to accommodate illegals.
  • This comes as Democrats welcome millions of outsiders, who take jobs and housing from Americans.
