Governor Making New Yorkers Pay Billions for Illegals, While Altering Census to Favor Democrats

Governor Kathy Hochul has come under fire for funneling billions of taxpayer dollars into services for illegal immigrants while defending sanctuary policies that endanger public safety. Hochul recently announced a $50 million legal defense fund for migrants fighting deportation under President Trump’s policies, part of a larger $4.3 billion allocation for illegal immigrant services approved by the Democrat-led legislature.
Republicans blasted the spending as a betrayal of New Yorkers already burdened by high taxes, pointing to horrific crimes tied to illegal immigrants, rising Medicaid liabilities projected to exceed $1.2 billion, and a local taxpayer burden in New York City estimated at $12 billion.
Public outrage has spread across social media, with residents demanding aid for homeless veterans and struggling families instead. State Senator Dean Murray accused Democrats of defying federal law by funding healthcare for undocumented immigrants, while Assemblyman Joseph DeStefano argued Democrats are deliberately creating dependency to secure future votes.
Even Democratic Mayor Eric Adams warned that the unchecked influx of migrants could “destroy New York City,” blaming both Hochul and President Biden for failing to plan or fund the response.
