When does an illegal migrant STOP qualifying for free city housing?

By NY Post Editorial Board

What’s the endgame for New York City’s migrant madness?

Mayor Eric Adams just booked the entirety of “the world’s tallest Holiday Inn” — that’s almost 500 rooms — to house some of the 44,000-and-counting migrants who’ve landed here.

The burn rate of tax bucks to pay for this is obscene: At full capacity, the inn contract alone will cost some $10.5 billion through May 2024. (No wonder Adams recently implied the sky’s the limit on the crisis’ ultimate cost to the city).

For skeptics who say migrants can’t possibly fill it to the brim for that long — why not?

The migrants keep coming across the southern border, thanks to our president’s wave-them-in policy, and his State of the Union speech gave no hint of plans to change it.

I don't see an endgame in sight as long as the Feds keep pushing money at NYC.  Question:  Did Holiday Inn have the right to refuse this service, or is there a NYC law that says HI has to allow it?

Why would Holiday Inn refuse?  They're getting paid for every room in the building, for an apparently open-ended, if not unlimited, period of time.

Other Hotels have sustained damage in excess of the fees the government is paying out on the Left Coast.  Not sure why the illegals in NYC would be any better on the rooms.   :shrug:

I'm sure they've taken that into consideration.
