When did NYC offer to house migrants and pay their expenses?  They didn't.  So why is Texas sending NYC migrants, lying to them, claiming that NYC made that offer?

And don't say "you voted for this blah blah blah" and "sanctuary city blah blah blah."  Nobody voted to spend millions housing and feeding random migrants.   That's not what "sanctuary city" means.  Sanctuary city only means that a city isn't going to do the feds' job on immigration control for them.[/quote]

Yes you did. You voted in nitwits like AOC who are pro this crap. You voted in droves for Biden in NY.  You vote for this stuff by sending down loony bin politicians like AOC and then vote for Biden.  Maybe try using common sense while voting instead of voting automatically down the ticket party line.

I must have missed it when AOC passed a bill promising free room and board for illegals.   Either post a citation for that bill, or STFU and stop making shit up.  "Common sense" does not allow making shit up.[/quote]

No.  She didn't pass a bill.  Democrats don't operate that way.  They skirt around laws and don't have the time to actually legislate.  Instead, they seek other kind of funding to ensure that these people who entered illegally have free housing.  Tax payer funding, of course.

[quote]Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she’s working with Mayor Adams to apply for more federal housing funds to help the Big Apple address the migrant crisis — but refused to call on President Biden to secure the border and instead welcomed the surge of asylum seekers.

The congresswoman said she’s working with City Hall on applying for grants through the Office of Housing and Urban Development.

“So they are working with that application on emergency housing services.  We have a housing crisis in this city. There are many ways we need to respond to it,” Ocasio-Cortez said during a Wednesday night town hall meeting in The Bronx.

“We are in close communication with the mayor’s office and getting the resources necessary.  If some states don’t want to do their job on that, that’s fine.  But then those federal resources should come to New York City, and those federal dollars should come to places that want to take care of people, and we need that financial support.  We are closely monitoring the situation.”[/quote]
