There are 60,000 asylum seekers in Manhattan. The Feds may house some to ACY.
The immigrant crisis landed on New Jersey for the first time last week – at least politically – and it didn’t exactly bring out the best in us, notably the state officials from both parties whose message was as welcoming as the slam of a door and the clack of a lock.
Gov. Murphy’s initial reaction was the most dispiriting example.
