Cuomo blames Biden administration for NYC’s migrant crisis: ‘A federal responsibility’

By Joe Marino and Patrick Reilly
Published Sep. 14, 2023

In one his few public appearances since resigning in disgrace, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday night bashed the federal and state government’s response to New York City’s migrant crisis — and warned the issue is “going to hurt” Democrats politically.

Cuomo — who left office in August 2021 amid sexual misconduct accusations that he denies — received a warm welcome from a packed house at the Thomas Jefferson Democratic Club in Brooklyn, where he gave a nearly one-hour speech that centered on the government’s handling of immigration.

“This was a federal responsibility, period. First and foremost. Not the state, not the city. Immigration law is a federal responsibility,” Cuomo said.

The ex-governor said if he was in office, he’d march down to Washington and demand President Biden “take hold of this.”
