Molinaro, and other New York Republicans, to focus on migrants

Kevin Frey reports for New York State of Politics that Republicans running for Congress in next year's elections in New York will be talking about the mayor of New York City busing migrants into other towns and cities in New York. They will not be mentioning the Republican governors of Florida and Texas, who are using planes and buses to move migrants around the country for political reasons. “New York City is transporting a crisis to counties all across the state of New York,” said Rep. Marc Molinaro in an interview on June 15. Molinaro, who represents the 19th Congressional District, also already has a bill that would stop Gov. Kathy Hochul from sheltering migrants on state university campuses. New York Democrats are saying their concern is not politics. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, running for reelection next year, said, “My concern is that there is a humanitarian crisis with families, with children who are suffering deeply.” Read more about this story at New York State of Politics.
