[Breitbart] Officials in New York City and Chicago are feeling the political heat over their policies giving billions of tax dollars to illegal aliens while taking benefits away from their citizens, and now both cities are pushing policies that may lead people to assume they are toughening their stance on illegals. But a close look at the policies shows what a sham these ballyhooed policies really are.
Both of these deep blue, Democrat-dominated towns have made what might at first glance seem to be an about face on their generous treatment of illegal immigrants. In Chicago, Mayor Brandon Johnson has been all over the news, pounding podiums and beating his chest over his plans to “evict” illegal aliens who have stayed too long in city-sponsored shelters.
Meanwhile, New York’s liberal Mayor Eric Adams is making political hay over his claim to be revisiting the city’s loose “right to shelter” rules and tightening the restrictions to exclude certain illegal aliens, because, he says, the right to shelter law was meant for citizens who are down on their luck, not illegal aliens breaking our laws to get here. |
