Rockland County officials took legal action Monday to shut down a “migrant flophouse” that was crammed with 31 asylum seekers hailing from Ecuador and Guatemala.
blamed the migrant crisis on President Biden’s failure to secure the border and New York’s pro-sanctuary policies of taking in asylum seekers, which they described as people entering the country illegally.
The migrants from Ecuador and Guatemala were discovered following a surprise inspection in Clarkstown.“We are still determining how these individuals arrived in Clarkstown, and whether or not they were part of a clandestine effort by Mayor Adams to subvert the will of Rockland County and prior judicial decisions,” Lawler said.
Rockland Executive Ed Day called on state Attorney General Letitia James to launch an investigation into the human trafficking of migrants in New York City.“This is a crisis. The southern border must be closed for a period of time until we find common sense solutions.”
