[NY Post] Apparently, NY City doesn't need Federal $$, they can afford to be stoopid all on their own
Big Apple lawmakers may need their heads examined.
Newly arrived migrants to the five boroughs may soon be able to visit with taxpayer-funded therapists to get in touch with their feelings, should a new City Council proposal become law.
The bill would station mental health coordinators at all 218 city migrant shelters and run taxpayers — on the low end — at least $15 million a year, according to a Post analysis.
The proposal was introduced last week by Councilmembers Lynn Schulman (D-Queens), Shahana Hanif (D-Brooklyn), and Jennifer Gutiérrez (D-Brooklyn). The trio failed to get the bill passed last year.
Last year NYC had a smaller budget deficit. This year the voters are unhappy about it, though the most unhappy are taking their votes with them when they move to somewhere sane.
The measure "would require the Mayor’s Office of Community Health to have at least one mental health coordinator at any location where refugees and migrants receive services from the city.

Prescribe anti-depressants for them so the taxpayers can pay for it and Big Pharma can profit.

I wonder how the legal NYC voters feel about this idea.
