Driven to increasingly desperate measures by an endless flood of foreign migrants, New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Monday proposed that the city pay individual New Yorkers to host the foreigners in their homes.
At the same press conference, Adams announced New York City will begin paying up to 50 houses of worship about $125 a night to host up to 19 single men on their properties.
That's a relative steal for the city, which has been paying hotels $380, according to the New York Post.
Adams framed both ideas as ways to prevent money from ending up in corporate coffers: "We can take that $4.2 billion, or $4.3 billion maybe now, that we potentially have to spend, and we can put it back in the pockets of everyday New Yorkers, everyday houses of worship instead of putting it in the pockets of corporations, and some of those corporations come from outside of our city." The city now has more than 45,000 illegal immigrants living in taxpayer-funded hotels and shelters.
A month ago, the city was paying $8 million a day to house migrants - and that's when there were "Only" 37,500 of them.
Expanding on the idea of converting migrant-shelter funds into local economic stimulus, Adams said, "There are residents who are suffering right now because of economic challenges. They have spare rooms. They have locales," said Adams at a press conference.
Adams gave no indication he'd put migrants in his house.
