Since the start of Greg Abbott’s bussing policy, Texas and other border states have sent more than 40,000 asylum seekers to New York City. Now the mayor is suggesting that the “right to shelter” guaranteed in the state constitution doesn't apply to them.
Mayor Eric Adams, who stated “there is no more room in the inn” when he traveled to El Paso, Texas in early January, has increasingly hinted that the city’s right to shelter does not apply to migrants.
Most of the speakers were from the Row NYC Hotel and New York Manhattan Hotel where staff has been accused of verbal abuse and threats. “I understand when the workers are saying insults about us in English,” Patrick said. Not all staff have been accused of abuse. Sally Saval was terminated from the Row by text message on Nov. 22, just 12 days after being hired. She claims this was in retaliation for attempting to secure more resources for migrants. “I got fired for doing my job. I got fired because I was advocating for them.”
“Many of these reported incidents are not exclusive to one hotel or to one shelter, and many, if not most, unhoused New Yorkers have universally experienced these types of abuses for a sustained period of time,” said Ariadna Phillips of SBXMA at the speak-out. SBXMA is a part of the, a network spread across the city that has been providing migrants support since they started arriving. Many of its participating mutual-aid groups sprung up during the 2020 George Floyd uprising.
The Red Hook camp has around 1,000 beds and 80 bathrooms. The cots have one layer of cloth and the sheets and thin blankets provided are not sufficient to keep people warm in the winter.
