“It is unacceptable for the Governor and New York City leadership to send undocumented migrants onto taxpayer-funded SUNY campuses across the state due to their lack of planning. Most are coming here for a better life, but there are some coming here with nefarious intent. Further, we do not know who they are due to the lack of proper vetting at the border. Let us be clear– Suffolk County is not a sanctuary county that has the resources or funding to properly house such influxes of migrants, let alone pick up the slack because New York lawmakers failed to plan in advance.”
