Only 800 of New York's tens of thousands of illegal immigrants have applied for work authorization
The city's illegal immigration crisis is "showing that government — no matter what level, city, state and federal — isn't cut out to handle this."

It has been revealed that out of the tens of thousands of illegal immigrants that have taken over New York City within the past 18 months, less than two percent have applied for work visas. Democrats at every level of government continue to say that getting more work visas will solve the illegal immigration problem in New York.
AOC and other Democrats staged a press conference outside midtown Manhattan's Roosevelt Hotel on Friday to speak about work authorizations, more federal funding, and the American dream, but they were shouted down by constituents who very clearly want the border closed.
According to New York Post, only 800 adult-aged illegal immigrants have filed the necessary paperwork required to obtain work visas which will allow them to start earning a legal wage. Data shows that there are roughly 60,000 illegal immigrants currently residing in the Big Apple.
