are finding their way through, simply saying they need asylum, and the majority of them seem to be ending up in the streets of New York, and that is a real problem for New York City,” the Democratic governor said.“Congress has to put more controls at the border,” she said. “Talk about eliminating positions for Border Patrol, well, we actually need to double or quadruple those numbers.”
Hochul has lobbied for state funds to help shelter and feed the wave of migrants, including to pay for a massive tent city erected on Manhattan’s Randall’s Island this summer. Waves of asylum seekers have flooded across the US border with Mexico since the spring of last year, with more than 110,000 processed in New York City.Hochul has also pushed back against the city’s “right to shelter” law, which guarantees New Yorkers the right to housing, a rule that asylum seekers have been benefiting from.
