Asylum seeker center at NYC hotel to close

NEW YORK (CBS, KYMA/KECY) - The asylum seeker center at New York City's Roosevelt Hotel will close, Mayor Eric Adams announced Monday.

A date for its closure has not been announced.


For nearly two years, the hotel has been serving as an intake center for migrants just arriving in the city, offering legal and medical services, along with shelter for families with children.

Adams calls the closure a milestone in the city's asylum seeker crisis.

In a statement, Adams said in part, "Now, thanks to the sound policy decisions of our team, we are able to announce the closure of this site and help even more asylum seekers take the next steps in their journeys as they envision an even brighter future, while simultaneously saving taxpayers millions of dollars."

But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

This is equivalent to Biden saying the border is secure, but we'll check to make sure and close it if its open. :bsflag:
