Roosevelt Hotel becomes modern-day Ellis Island for NYC migrants

It was just over a year ago when the Roosevelt Hotel became New York City's intake cener for newly-arriving migrants. Since then, thousands hae passed through from over 100 different nations. FOX 5 NY's Morgan McKay got an inside look at their operations.

    Immigrants don’t get insurance until they apply to certain immigration status programs. Many spend months without medical assistance. Public service assistance is available to residents. Someone else’s help is not taking away from something benefiting residents.

    It’s totally like Ellis Island except for you know all the free medical care, housing, education, travel, legal services. Oh, and qualifying for public assistance, a photo ID, and drivers’ license. Also, providing an interpreter or translation everywhere for everything. Then there’s the taxpayer funded “non-profit” organizations & advocacy groups offering migrant assistance. Can’t forget the sanctuary laws and federal policies supporting mass migration. Ya know, now that I think about it, Roosevelt Hotel isn’t like Ellis Island at all. It’s almost like only an stupid person would say that

    Calling Rosevelt Hotel Ellis Island is like a slap in the face for all who have come to the US legally. Giving a room in a good hotel to all those illegals when Americans who fought for the country are homeless in the street is like kicking veterans in the ass. Shame on you, liberal, woke, and progressive voters.
