Residents criticized New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) on Sunday, blaming his handling of the migrant crisis for the problems they are facing.
Adams addressed the group, saying, “If you feel I’m not doing the job the last 18 months with the mess I inherited, the mess I inherited. You have a right to do what you want.”
New York City has spent $817 million to address the migrant crisis between July 2022 and March, according to the Office of Budget and Management. Estimates show the city will spend $4.2 billion on costs related to the migrant crisis from June 2023 through the end of fiscal year 2024., Orenstein shared the frustration community members are feeling over the migrant camp at Creedmoor. He then demanded the mayor return them to Mexico and Washington, DC.
“But not at Creedmoor. Not in our neighborhood. You’re going to destroy our community, destroy our property values. There’s going to be crime. There’s going to be drug taking,” Orenstein declared, per the audio.
