New York City supports foreign-born immigrants who came across U.S. borders without legal authority. For their convenience, "benefits for undocumented immigrants" are published here.
Over 70,000 immigrants have been temporarily put up in Manhattan at the former Roosevelt Hotel, now called "the New York City arrival center," by the city since 2021. "They have no idea what's going on, they were just given a bus ticket or plane ticket."
It's unsustainable for the city, according to the Migrant Affairs Commissioner in this local video report. Mayor Eric Adams has been to Washington D.C. ten times to plead for help in managing what he deems a crisis. He says they are out of room, out of money.
