Rally Against New Migrant Shelter in Brooklyn
There is a rally against the new migrant shelter being planned for Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn on Thursday, August 24th at 5:00 pm. Location: The Toys R Us Parking Lot at 2875 Flatbush Avenue.
The Federal Government approved this site. (See news) Two thousand five hundred migrants will be able to stay here.
Surprisingly, this rally is being supported by some Democrats and Republicans.
I didn’t think people would be upset with a shelter at Floyd Bennett Field but people are upset.
Most people are upset because the migrant crisis is not being dealt with and people are still being accepted into NYC.
The Assembly member representing Floyd Bennett Field, Jaime Williams is a Democrat and she is not happy. She even wants to know the process to deport non-asylum seekers.
Supporters of the migrants believe that Floyd Bennett Field is too far away from amenities. All of those amenities can be brought to Floyd Bennett Field. There is a lot of room there for the men and buses can be added to this area as well.
Hugs,
