MIGRANTS: 'WILL COME FOR YOUR HOMES'

Crime resulting in New York City business owners applying for gun licenses

Bodega & Small Business Association's Frank Marte on NYC business owners taking
matters in their own hands and feeling a lack of support from city leaders as
crime continues to be an issue.

Elon Musk issued an ominous warning after New York City students were forced
into remote learning Wednesday as their school was used to house migrants
Tuesday night.  

"This is what happens when you run out of hotel rooms. Soon, cities will run out
of schools to vacate. Then they will come for your homes," Musk wrote Tuesday on
X. 

Musk responded to a video shared by the LibsofTikTok account showing migrants
being dropped off from a yellow school bus to James Madison High School in
Brooklyn. 



"School is closed tomorrow because illegals will be sleeping in the school’s
gym. This is disgraceful! NYC is prioritizing illegals over Americans,"
LibsofTikTok wrote.

IN SCHOOL INSTEAD

Musk doubled down, writing, "They’ve run out of hotel rooms, are kicking kids
out of school for illegal housing and now they want your homes too." 



That was in response to LibsofTiktok sharing a screenshot of an Aug. 9, 2023,
article by Boston 25 News with the headline, "Governor Healey asks residents to
house migrant families amid growing shelter crisis." In Massachusetts, Gov.
Maura Healey, who declared a state of emergency over the crisis, had asked
residents to consider sponsoring migrant families by hosting them in their homes
as the state's shelter system reached capacity, according to the outlet.  

In a press release, New York City Council Minority Whip Inna Vernikov said
earlier Tuesday that due to the incoming storm, "around 2,000 migrants from
Floyd Bennett field will be transported to James Madison High School this
evening and will be occupying its gymnasiums and auditorium overnight."

"Our public schools are meant to be places of learning and growth for our
children, and were never intended to be shelters or facilities for emergency
housing," Vernikov wrote. "There are approximately 4,000 students who attend
Madison High School. Their parents are rightfully concerned. Our constituents
who live in the vicinity are concerned for their safety and wellbeing. This will
agitate local residents, disrupt the entire school environment, and place a
tremendous burden on families, students, school administrators and staff." 



Vernikov demanded a "full stop" to using public schools as migrant shelters,
saying the situation at Floyd Bennett Field was "both unacceptable and was
entirely foreseeable" due to the site’s vulnerability to inclement weather.

gym," LibsofTikTok wrote. (Gardiner Anderson for NY Daily News via Getty Images

"Madison is a scan school where students get scanned upon entrance, but the
migrants got to bypass that as per the NYPD. A lot of law enforcement and other
agency resources have been poured into this situation tonight. Also, these
children are being moved from place to place and will be forced to wake up at
4:30am to leave the school to go elsewhere," Vernikov wrote on X, sharing video
of migrants, including children entering the high school Tuesday evening.
"Unacceptable situation for all!"

FOX Business reached out to the offices of New York City Mayor Eric Adams and
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul for comment, but neither immediately responded.

BOUND FOR NYC

Though the migrants were reportedly moved back out again by sunrise, the high
school notified parents that the building would be closed and remote learning
would be available for all students on Wednesday, "to ensure a smooth transition
for families temporarily sheltering overnight in the building." 

New York State Assemblyman Mike Reilly, who serves the south shore of Staten
Island, was at the Brooklyn high school on Wednesday where parents also rallied
in protest. Several parents who spoke to Fox News on camera outside James
Madison High School described how some teachers did not show up on the provided
links for remote learning on Wednesday, while others opened the Zoom by giving
students an assignment and then promptly logging off. The mothers stressed this
interruption in learning comes as their students are preparing for state regents
exams and others that will impact their college applications — and after COVID
lockdowns impacted their children's educations. 



"We knew this was going to happen. Today it's James Madison. Where's tomorrow?
Or the next day? These storms are coming. It's the winter time," Reilly said,
stressing that he introduced a bipartisan bill months ago to prevent schools and
day cares from being used as migrant shelters. "Floyd Bennett Field, really?
Like you weren’t warned? Mr. Mayor, you knew this was going to happen. Everyone
knew this was going to happen."

meant to be places of learning and growth for our children, and were never
intended to be shelters or facilities for emergency housing." (Gardiner Anderson

Reilly stressed that in the past, school officials hesitated to close schools in
snowstorms or inclement weather, citing that Title 1 low-income students still
needed to eat school meals. 



"What about the Title 1 students here, threw them out in the cold. It’s about
time we wake up," Reilly said.
