"We have these migrants coming in, door knocking, stealing packages, you know, soliciting everywhere in front of our supermarkets, playing at the heartstrings of people," state Assemblywoman Jaime Williams (R-Brooklyn) told The Post. "And this is not what our community is about. Floyd Bennett field is not a place to house migrants. It's a flood zone [with] no infrastructure whatsoever. So when you have them in that type of setting, there is nothing left to do. They're going to be on the street because they don't have any jobs."
"I don't mind if they come in the legal way," longtime neighborhood resident Antonia Natal said Sunday. "That's what our country's about. That's what our country is built on, many migrants - legal. And I'm supportive of that. I feel we need to do that with the whole city - no illegals, no shelters," Natal added. "We can't. It's going to damage the economy here, the housing market here, everything."
