NY Governor Hochul floats idea of housing illegals in dorms at state universities
By Thomas Lifson

Oh oh! It turns out that actually experiencing an inflow of illegal immigrants can force even the bluest of blue state Dem politicians to risk angering their equally blue constituents. Spectrum News reports:

Quote
Gov. Kathy Hochul’s administration has identified dorms on three SUNY campuses to use as housing sites for migrants, according to a source.

The source told NY1 the plan includes a total of 1,500 beds at the University at Buffalo, Stony Brook University and the University at Albany.

An announcement is expected as soon as next week, the source said.

As long as it was red states Texas and Florida bearing the brunt of massive Biden-era illegal immigration, blue state Dem politicians were happy to claim that only heartless xenophobes and racists could possibly object to open borders. But when Texas and Florida started shipping a comparative few to places like Martha’s Vineyard, Chicago, and New York City, it got very awkward. Hoping that nobody would notice that only a comparative trickle of illegals was coming their way compared to, say, El Paso, they declared a crisis. And started to have to make difficult choices.

The State of New York is in a panic over what amounts to the daily inflow of a decade or three experienced by TX, NM, AZ, and CA border towns and cities? :silly: Would that the governors of those states had shared the illegal-immigrant-wealth with "Sanctuary Cities" that many decades ago!

Not gonna happen if Suffolk County has anything to say about it.  They've already started the process of stopping it.

Well, the ideal destination would have been back where they came from. They aren't even referred to as "refugees", nor "Illegal Immigrants", just "migrants" like they were a thundering herd of caribou or some such.

Wait until September comes and all the coeds show up.
Those illegal "migrants" will refuse to leave.

Gonna be interesting to watch what happens then.
