Gov. Phil Murphy says New Jersey doesn’t have the resources to take on any of the migrants surging into the Big Apple — rebuffing a possible plan by the feds to use an airport in the state as a shelter.
“I don’t see any scenario where we’re going to be able to take in a program in Atlantic City or frankly elsewhere in the state,” said the Garden State Democrat to News 12 on Thursday.
“You need scale, enormous amount of federal support, resources that go beyond anything that we can afford,” he said on the station’s “Ask Governor Murphy” segment.
