Reply to comment by ifallsmn218 in Adams signs $275M deal with NYC hotels to house migrants by deathhand
>It has nothing to do with ‘these people want to go to NYC’. That’s bs. Most of these migrants have family who work in agricultural settings in the US already, and I doubt they’re milking cows or digging potatoes in Times Square.
Nobody is being bussed here against their will.
Also, you can find articles detailing how migrants are thankful to be bussed to friendlier jurisdictions like D.C. and NYC over staying in Texas border towns.
Migrants in El Paso are not being set up in hotels and having their expenses paid for.
​
>If the goal is for this migrant resettlement to be a success then you don’t send them to the most expensive city in America.
For migrant resettlement to be a success, it can't be built off of economic migrants exploiting the asylum process, so the system is already destined for failure.
​
>You send them to the cheapest cities closest to where they entered the country, like Tulsa, Little Rock, Paducah, Baton Rouge, Springfield, Wichita, Missoula, Des Moines, Rapid City, Sioux Falls, Fargo, Grand Forks and so on.
Once migrants are released from federal custody, they can't be forced to go anywhere.
Migrants are offered free bus trips to NYC and are taking them. Perhaps if the mayor of Tulsa holds multiple press conferences saying they'll take migrants as Adams did for over a year, the governor of TX will route some Greyhounds there.
​
>These red states have been sending their criminals, homeless and addicts to CA & NY for decades while nobody has said anything
NYC has had multiple scandals with bussing homeless people out of the city.
Also, look at the stats for homelessness in CA. Most of them are long-time residents (10+ years) of the state.
And your conspiracy theory of NY criminals being red-state transplants is not backed by evidence.
