Mayor Eric Adams has given up hope that President Biden will cough up any material amount to pay for the Big Apple’s $4.2 billion migrant crisis this fiscal year, Hizzoner’s budget dire…
Democratic Councilman Keith Powers , meanwhile, said he’s worried that city budget officials aren’t accounting for the migrant crisis’ hit to the budget in future years.
The city expects to spend $2.8 billion on housing and other services for migrants through June 30, the end of fiscal 2023, and $1.4 billion more during fiscal 2024, for a total of $4.2 billion, Jiha said.for $1 billion to deal with the migrant influx but only about $8 million has so far been authorized.
Gov. Kathy Hochul has proposed having the state pay 29% of the city’s migrant-related costs to a maximum of $1 billion over two years.Jiha on Monday called the Schumer funding and Hochul’s proposal “woefully insufficient and inadequate to cover the needs.” “That’s what they keep telling us,” he said. “They have not submitted any guidelines to proceed — nothing — and most likely, my hunch is, it’s unlikely we’re gonna get any resources in this fiscal year.”In late January, Adams pressed Biden for a chance to discuss the migrant crisis when the president visited the city to tout $292 million in federal spending on a new Hudson River rail tunnel.
