NEW YORK GOVERNOR FLIPS ON MIGRANTS

If New York is already buckling under the load and has run out of room, what will the situation be like a year from now?

The open border policy started under Biden two years ago. That policy was not in place under Obama, and Gov Hochul is Democrat not Republican, so this is not some D vs R political battle – it is specific to the current administration.
NEW YORK GOVERNOR FLIPS ON MIGRANTS

In Dec 2021, NY Gov. Kathy Hochul invited all migrants to come to New York.

She welcomed them with open arms, quoting the welcoming message from the Statue of Liberty touting the state's sanctuary status.

A few days ago, she changed her tune due to the ongoing migrant crisis:

"If you're going to leave your country, go somewhere else. We have to let the word out that when you come to New York, you’re not going to have more hotel rooms. We don’t have capacity, so we have to also message properly."

She advocated for people to enter the country properly:

"The smarter thing is to apply for asylum before you leave your country.”

Immigration plays a key role in our economy and labor force, but it must be done through the correct channels.

If New York is struggling to accept more migrants, then we have a serious problem!

Is Hochul a hypocrite, or did she bite off more than she can chew?
