New York taxpayers express frustration with the city allocating too much money to illegal immigrants while neglecting the needs of mentally ill individuals and veterans. One taxpayer says that New York residents can no longer deport immigrants, who are now allegedly robbing and stealing to survive. Another taxpayer feels suffocated by the migration crisis, especially regarding services for mothers, fathers, and the homeless. They claim that migrants receive green cards and debit cards, while long-term residents receive nothing. A waitress says she is annoyed that the city is giving money to hotels housing illegal immigrants, while she is barely able to afford to live in the city. She says that it is becoming impossible to live in New York because everything is so expensive.

Savannah Hernandez reports from New York City's Roosevelt Hotel, examining the migrant crisis. She found a Jackson Hewitt table with an employee distributing flyers to migrants, stating, "working or not, file your taxes, and we can get the maximum refund for your family." The flyer claims a refund of over $7,000 for one child and over $14,000 for up to three children. The employee initially handing out the flyer took it back upon learning Hernandez was a journalist, stating legal would have to get involved if he was filmed. Another migrant provided a copy. A Jackson Hewitt employee confirmed they are helping migrants with their taxes to get refunds. Hernandez notes that despite promises of mass deportations, New York City, a sanctuary city, has a thriving migrant crisis. A shelter is closing in June, but another with 2,200 beds for single migrant men just opened in The Bronx. The city has already spent $7 billion on migrants.

Savannah Hernandez reports from downtown Chicago near Millennium Park, highlighting the worsening migrant crisis. She encountered a man from Ecuador who arrived a month ago and is now begging for money to return home. He claims he contracted tuberculosis at a migrant shelter and spent two weeks in the hospital. The man says no one in Chicago is willing to help him. While Chicago, like New York, has intake centers that can provide plane tickets to other states or countries, Hernandez notes the prevalence of migrants on street corners asking for money. She concludes that the shelter system is failing and the migrant crisis in Chicago is dire.

The city has decided to end its controversial voucher program for migrants, which provided debit cards for food purchases. This pilot program aimed to support migrant families in city-funded hotels, allowing them to buy culturally relevant food. Each family of four received about $350 weekly, which the city claimed would save taxpayers $1 million annually and reduce food waste. The program was initiated due to the challenges faced by over 200,000 asylum seekers, but the migrant population has recently decreased, leading to the closure of a major shelter on Roosevelt Island. Mayor Adams recently spoke with president-elect Donald Trump, who has promised mass deportations, but did not disclose the details of their conversation.

Hey everyone, Savannah Hernandez here in Boston, one of four cities defying federal immigration law. Massachusetts just allocated $425 million in pandemic funds to house migrants through June 2025. I sent someone posing as an immigrant to City Hall to see what's offered. Many sanctuary cities temporarily house migrants in hotels before permanent placement. Boston's mayor, along with Chicago, Denver, and New York City's mayors, will address a House oversight committee next month on their sanctuary policies. They claim compassion and public safety can coexist, but a recent incident involving an illegal immigrant arrested with 5,000 grams of fentanyl and an AR-15 in a Boston hotel contradicts that claim. Other arrests of illegal immigrants in Boston involved gang activity, child rape, murder, and drug distribution. This highlights the ongoing conflict between sanctuary cities and the federal government, with threats of prosecution and funding cuts.

The US government is using BlackRock to house illegal immigrants in New York, paying homeowners $125 per migrant per day. With BlackRock owning many properties, they stand to profit significantly. Incentives in New York make it attractive for migrants to go there. This arrangement is likely to continue until the census.

The Roosevelt Hotel is still operating despite Mayor Adams' June closure announcement. The hotel, owned by Pakistani and International Air, closed in 2020 but was leased by New York City during the migrant crisis for $575,000 a night, or $200 per room. With 1,025 rooms, the hotel housed over 3,000 migrants, costing New York City taxpayers $4,000,000 a week, or $16,000,000 a month for three and a half years. The speaker claims New York City has spent billions on this crisis and attributes it to open border policies. They state Obama deported over 3,200,000 people, while Donald Trump deported around 175,000. The speaker concludes the crisis is due to open borders and housing migrants in hotels at taxpayer expense.

I am at the airport where migrants are living. The city received $120 million, but we don't know where the money went. CBS lawyers haven't responded. We are trying to shed light on the situation and hope someone will take action. I spoke to someone from Venezuela about their needs. They can't stay in Los Angeles. People are sleeping on the floor at O'Hare Airport and in police stations across the city. There doesn't seem to be a plan. The situation has worsened over time. I will go outside.

The area was filled with migrants, but they were moved inside when filming began. Signs offer free travel tickets out of New York City in multiple languages. The migrants disappeared when approached for questioning.

I am at Phoenix Airport waiting to board my flight to JFK in New York. There are many migrants on this flight, and it is being funded by US taxpayers. They are being sent to New York because other places are full. These migrants are being sent to sanctuary cities like New York, and we are all paying for it.

The Roosevelt Hotel, owned by Pakistani and International Air, is still operating despite Mayor Adams' reported intention to close it in June. The hotel closed in 2020, but New York City leased it from the Pakistani company at $575,000 a night, or $200 per room, due to the migrant crisis. At its peak, the hotel housed over 3,000 migrants, costing $4,000,000 a week, or $16,000,000 a month. New York City taxpayers have been paying this amount for the past three and a half years to house undocumented immigrants.

A migrant family of four in New York receives significant benefits, including over $20 a month in freebies, $500 a night for hotel stays, $130 a day for food, and just $5 a month for their two kids in public school. This doesn’t include additional perks like $1,000 cash gift cards from Mayor Adams, free healthcare, free phones, free legal assistance, and $400,000 in college tuition for dreamers. In contrast, working taxpayers in New York struggle to afford housing, paying around $1,000 for small living spaces. The speaker highlights their own 80 square foot apartment, which costs $1,754.

New York City is facing a humanitarian crisis and dealing with it almost entirely on its own. Mayor Eric Adams says the city's finances are buckling under the weight of 100,000 migrants who have been bussed to town over the last year. The city is still directly caring for more than 57,000 migrants across roughly 200 emergency shelters and is spending $9.8 million a day. The city has already spent about $1.5 billion and will spend an additional $4.7 billion in the year ahead.

There is a migrant crisis in New York City, with over 100,000 migrants needing housing, education, and medical care. Mayor Adams wants the federal government or the state to cover the costs, but they refuse. The burden falls on New York City taxpayers, adding to existing issues like congestion pricing, crime, and homelessness. The speaker criticizes the government for not taking responsibility for the problem they created.

I'm in the Bronx, where 2,200 migrant men will soon be housed in this building. Bronx residents are angry because they weren't consulted. This highlights how sanctuary cities, despite the Trump administration's crackdown on illegal immigration, continue spending millions on migrant housing. For example, a women- and minority-owned business received a $340,000 contract, and Garner Environmental Services got a $450 million contract to manage shelters citywide. Residents are protesting the lack of input on this relocation to this building, which was originally marketed as luxury housing with a rooftop terrace. This is just temporary housing; permanent housing will likely follow, a pattern seen in other sanctuary cities and states. I'm here to bring attention to the Bronx residents' concerns about this situation.

Savannah Hernandez reports from the Bronx migrant shelter opened six months ago to house 2,200 migrant men. She notes that 62 shelters have been closed this month, but "since 2022, you've had a quarter million illegal immigrants come into New York City and around 200 migrant shelters opened as a direct response." She observes migrants are being moved into various boroughs rather than shelters closing. Interviews with residents describe conditions as "difficult" and "not easy." The piece links crime to migrants on mopeds, citing an incident where "an off duty police officer" was involved in a shooting and "one of these illegals was fatally shot," plus a "string of 62 robberies" and a suspect targeting women and children. It mentions two Dominicans with a "'long criminal rap sheet'" and notes Bronx residents were outraged before the opening. Update on the migrant crisis in New York City in 2025.

New York City is facing a major problem with migrants coming through the southern border. This issue is going to impact every community in the city and result in a $12 billion deficit. The speaker emphasizes that everyone needs to take responsibility and asks what role the listeners played in addressing this issue.

The speaker also mentions the back-and-forth between different boroughs about where to send the migrants, stating that this is not a game.

New York City is facing an emergency as over 60,000 illegal immigrants have arrived, with 5,000 of them being housed in The Row NYC hotel. Whistleblower Carlos Arellano, a former employee, reveals that the migrants receive free medical care, laundry services, housekeeping, and three meals a day. They are also provided with car seats, cribs, and IDs. However, the hotel has been plagued by violence, alcohol abuse, and theft.

Carlos believes the situation will only worsen and that the city is ill-equipped to handle it.

I am currently at Phoenix airport, waiting to board my flight to JFK in New York. I've noticed that there are many migrants on this flight, and it seems that US taxpayers are covering the cost. These migrants are being sent to New York City because other places are already full. It appears that the government is using sanctuary cities like New York to accommodate these migrants, and we, as taxpayers, are funding this arrangement.
