Hung out to dry: NYC spending millions to clean migrants’ laundry

This gives new meaning to money laundering.

New York City is shelling out millions of dollars to wash dirty clothes for migrants in local shelters — including a $1.1 million emergency cleaning contract awarded to Queens-based CRC Management Co. for people in shelters it runs that was revealed in city records Thursday.

The free laundry service for migrants is leaving New Yorkers hung out to dry, local leaders said.

“Taxpayers are being taken to the cleaners,” said Staten Island Borough President Vito Fossella. “Here we are providing laundry services to people who arrived here last week?

“That’s a lot of dough to spend on laundry. We should be spending that money elsewhere. It’s one more reason the migrant crisis has to come to an end.”
 
While a total figure spent by the city on migrant laundry was not known, it’s at least in the eight-figure range, as earlier this year a $10.5 million cleaning contract was awarded by the Health+ Hospital agency to Sodexo Laundry Service.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

So what,they ARE our masters. Otherwise they would have to be paying their own rent,utility  bills,buying their own food,buying their own clothes,AND working hard at jobs in order to be able to do it.

Instead,it is the American citizens who are working overtime to insure that illegal aliens are "retired in place" and don't have to work.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

You are so right @sneakypete  -  they came here illegally -- at the very least they need to be paying for rent, utilities, groceries and let them do their own damn laundry!   9999hair out0000 9999hair out0000 888mouth 888mouth 888mouth 888mouth

One more reason to pack them up and ship them back over the border.  Line up our ARMED national guardsmen and don't let them across in the first place.  They are an enemy of the U.S.A.!!
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
