One-way plane tickets: NYC offers migrants free travel anywhere to move

New York City is moving migrants out of shelters and offering them plane tickets to anywhere in the world.

NEW YORK — Here’s one approach to discourage migrants from settling in New York City: Give them a free, one-way plane ticket out of town.

Mayor Eric Adams is ramping up efforts to fly migrants to the destination of their choice, figuring it’s cheaper than sheltering them for months on end. And he’s simultaneously warning that those opting to stay in New York may be in for a winter of sleeping outside with shelters full.

This was the program the illegal that killed Laken Riley used to fly to Georgia.

"I am worried about these families 'cause we're gonna go right back to where we were in the beginning when families used to come to me and say, 'I'm getting frozen meals at the shelters, I'm getting these boxed meals with just crackers and sandwiches, and this is all I'm getting,'" migrant advocate Power Malu said.

The debit cards were provided by the company Mobility Capital Finance through a no-bid contract.

Okay so like, you do realize that NYC is a different polity from the federal government right? Well credit where it's due, you proved that kinda somewhat existed, so what you'd move to NYC if you could make use of that?

"Housing" also I presume is similarly NYC's right to shelter law where they have to find you a bed if you show up sober at a homeless shelter. Cell phones are I'd also presume an NYC thing because these days you literally can't exist without internet access.
So hey, if you want whatever bargain bin android from 5 years ago and a cot next to 5 other dudes then come on over to NYC.
EADs kinda just followed the thing they did for other categories too (and hey give republicans their fair share of blame for stopping eDACA), though the 180+ day waiting period to apply for an EAD via asylum still left a bunch of people being essentially wards of the state.

Is it a bit fucked that new arrivals are given priority? Sure, the thing you have to remember is that none of those guys waiting at the southern border are illegal immigrants, instead they're all applicants for asylum. So hey if your country of origin goes to shit remember to file within 1 year of that. But here you just drank the coolaid and believed Donald Trump out of all the miserable shitweasels that people lining up at a border checkpoint are somehow illegals.

Yeah sure they are not illegals cause they are "seeking ayslum" the current administration lowered the threshold of what that is and removed the remain in Mexico policy and wait to be processed but whatever, we're gonna disagree on specifics and policy but lets be honest, in optics it's not a good look for the public.

If all that didn't happen at the border and immigration not being the issue, I'm pretty sure Kamala Harris is the President-elect right now.

I strongly align with the libertarians in that I want to mind my own business and have everyone else mind their own business. But the Puritans settled first and made it their business to police everyone else.

Libertarians never win outright and they are mostly generated when republicans throw out someone for not following the party line. Or from people who are a little too optimistic. Besides many of their policies assume a smart and intelligent population, which given the recent election and pinheads googling "what are tariffs and can I change my vote" means it would not be effective. Democracy only works with an intelligent population or you get demagogues who can lie their way to the white house.

Seriously there were people voting against Obamacare not realizing until too late that its actually called the Affordable care act. Whoops! RUH ROH! Good luck with your pre-existing condition. Watch them scurry off to take advantage of Mexican health care as a last ditch effort.

And people voting for tariffs not realizing that tariffs were paid by the consumer side! Whoops!
Turns out the republican party didn't have your best interests in mind and you were just the useful idiot, patsy, fall guy, and bag holder.

So yeah, even if the Democrats are weak spineless pushovers day in and day out. They aren't the ones trying to actively damage us. At best we are just a 4th tier consideration. I don't see how anyone could see the rhetoric coming out of the mouths of republicans as anything but hostile. And I know some of you have some Stockholm syndrome for them, but no, they mean you harm. They want to put you in camps and subject you to humiliation. They want to place mines all over the border so they quickly shift due to the river and become a major problem for decades. Good luck finding the mines across 1,200 miles.

Now before anyone says: "but nuance not every republican". If there are three nazis at a table and a fourth person sits down they are likely a secret 4th nazi. And a rotten apple spoils the bunch. The bunch are now spoiled. Seriously, I've seen some republicans talking about "open season" on us. And "walk out or carried out."

They are so prideful and arrogant as to demand a military incursion in mexico without any mexican authorization or knowledge. Like we are some sort of colony of theirs. And yeah it can be a little inflammatory and I won't deny it stirs anger in me, but ultimately that fades into sadness. Sadness that because Mexico is the one nation in the US's sphere that doesn't bend over and lick boot like Pet nation Canada and all the Euros cowering under the NATO umbrella that its automatically marginalized and threatened periodically by the bi-polar US administration. Mexico is the only nation it seems that calls out the two-faced neighbor to the north. Its actually quite sad. The US and Mexico should be the bestest of buds in terms of nations. Both to promote free trade and regional integration, but also because its simply a wise investment in national security.

I love how they are so in love with following DEH LAWH but their president elect has 91 indictments and 35 felonies as if those will fade away. How about we start following the law there? No? The fish rots from the head.

But whatever, the election is over and now its time to reap what has been sown. If you don't like the taste of shit, stop planting shit trees.

A close margin in the house gives too much power to fringe groups like the Freedom Caucus... The next congress is going to be chaotic

I have my eye on the Dignity for Immigrants while Guarding our Nation to Ignite and Deliver the American Dream Act of 2023 or the DIGNIDAD (Dignity) Act of 2023. This is a GOP bill that has bipartisan support from the Problem Solvers Caucus

Quote:

requires the hiring of additional CBP personnel and authorizes recruitment, relocation, and retention bonuses for CBP personnel;
provides funding for border infrastructure and equipment;
makes it a crime to transmit the location of law enforcement with the intent to violate immigration laws or certain other federal laws;
requires employers to verify the immigration status of individuals using an electronic employment eligibility confirmation system modeled after the E-Verify system;
requires unaccompanied alien children to be processed and reunited with U.S.-based sponsors in accordance with the Flores settlement, which established policies pertaining to the treatment of minors without lawful immigration status;
requires the Department of State to implement a strategy to address the key factors contributing to individuals from Central America traveling to the United States;
provides a path to permanent resident status to eligible individuals without lawful immigration status who entered the United States as minors (commonly referred to as Dreamers);
establishes the Dignity Program, which defers the removal of eligible individuals without lawful immigration status who meet various requirements, including paying into a fund to provide training to U.S. workers; and
establishes the Redemption Program, which provides a path to permanent resident status to individuals who complete the Dignity Program and meet various requirements, including making additional payments into the U.S. worker fund.

Biden just pardoned his son. He should pardon Dreamers too, but I bet he won’t do it. Didn’t mentioned us for 4 years during his administration, I doubt he will think of us now.
