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.
