Part 3/7:
New York Congressman Mike Lawler remarked that these firings were “long overdue.” He criticized the Biden Administration’s handling of funds, claiming that New York City, a designated sanctuary city, has been squandering billions of dollars meant for taxpayers by offering free housing, food, and other services to illegal immigrants. Lawler praised the DHS actions as a necessary step to cease what he views as misallocation of funds that ultimately incentivize illegal immigration, urging that “this has to stop.”
