The New York City immigrant crisis has renewed the calls for Staten Island to secede from New York City, prompting Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) to lead the charge earlier this week.
Following a series of protests across Staten Island over proposed shelters sites for asylum seekers, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis appeared on “Mornings On 1” Wednesday to address the migrant crisis and voice concerns from her constituents.

However, Malliotakis said residents are afraid because of what they have heard from other migrant sites.
During Sunday’s broadcast of FNC’s “The Fox Report,” Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) accused President Joe Biden, New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) of incentivizing illegal immigration.

Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y., is calling on New York City to drop any charges against people who were protesting expected plans for a nursing home in her district to be converted into an emergency migrant shelter.
The audacity! Staten Island elected officials are making it known to City Hall and the Biden administration to halt plans to use Fort Wadsworth as a possible migrant shelter site, charging that doing so would violate federal protections of national historic landmarks.
Senior citizens who have received unsolicited coronavirus (COVID-19) test kids in recent months may be victims of a scam, and two local officials are urging them to take action.
Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-Staten Island/South Brooklyn) and Borough President Vito Fossella on Monday issued a joint press release calling on seniors who received unsolicited COVID-19 tests to report providers to the Medicare Fraud Line, ask for a new Medicare Card, and report the fraud to the congresswoman’s office.
