Adams is at it again....

City will begin rolling out a $53 million program that gives "migrants" pre-paid credit cards. Idea is they will then be able to pay for their own necessities instead of relying upon city such as meals.

I pray for NYers as if they get into an accident with one of these fools - you're the one who's insurance rates will go up as illegals don't need insurance.

If the city government is handing out the cards, then how does this eliminate the reliance on the city??? It's simply taking the funds from a different pocket!! I believe that in the real world, this is called "bait and switch".......

Well they're not relying upon city to furnish meals. Now these migrants can to shop for their own grub.

This situation gets worse and worse every day. Just cut the funds, many will leave on their own. Then we can deport the rest of them. But people just keep voting for those who want to take down the country...

I don’t see anyone protesting to city hall about this while services are cut. Gov Kathy Hochul needs to be voted out next term along with Adams for failing to take care of citizens.

FTA: The cards can only be used at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets and convenience stores — and migrants must sign an affidavit swearing they will only spend the funds on food and baby supplies or they will be kicked out of the program.

Peak clown world.

They keep voting for folks who do that, so NYC citizens must enjoy it.
