Staten Island Rep. Nicole Malliotakis on Wednesday praised the court ruling that would force the city to clear out a temporary migrant shelter in the borough.
Judge Wayne Ozzi on Tuesday called into question the city’s 42-year-old “right to shelter” policy, arguing against the “consent decree” that has been interpreted as a mandate to provide shelter. He argued the decree is meant to provide emergency housing for New Yorkers, and therefore, does not apply to migrant asylum seekers.
A 95-year-old Korean War veteran said he was given less than two months’ notice to figure out where he was going to live after the nursing home he resided in was sold to become a facility for undocumented migrants.
(STATEN ISLAND, NY) - Today Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis (NY-11) joined New York State State Senator Jessica Scarcella-Spanton, Korean War Veteran and former Island Shores resident Frank Tammaro and other elected officials and representatives from local veteran groups in voicing outrage following New York City's shady and lucrative deal with Homes for the Homeless to turn Island Shores Senior Residences into a migrant shelter, forcing seniors, including at least eight veterans to leave their homes to house up to 300 migrants residing in our country illegally.
Frank Tammaro was one of the lucky ones.

Dozens of city lawmakers and supportive constituents filed a lawsuit early Tuesday seeking to block Mayor Adams’ administration from housing as many as 2,000 migrants at Floyd Bennett Field, a mostly defunct airfield in southern Brooklyn that would cost taxpayers $1.7 million in monthly rent.
