BREAKING NEWS – New York City, New York – The Big Apple has announced it is reducing police numbers and cutting budgets in areas like education as it continues to struggle with the exorbitant costs related to the “sanctuary” city’s migrant crisis.
Mayor Eric Adams announced a $110.5 billion budget, saying cuts across all agencies were necessary with the city having spent $1.45 billion in fiscal 2023 on the migrant crisis and nearly $11 billion expected to be spent in 2024 and 2025.
“For months, we have warned New Yorkers about the challenging fiscal situation our city faces,” Adams said in a statement. “And I still reject Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s suggestion, which is to mandate that all businesses in the city to accept for purchases, both U.S. currency and pesos.”
