Homeless services is already a scam..here we go with the BS

[typingcat]

Yeah, keep giving them free housing and free food so that billions of poor people around the world would come to your country.

[Manuelitoohnovideos]

How can I volunteer??? We need to help our homeless. Real us citizens not migrants

[pulaski]

I can't say i trust this administration with numbers 😮

[Will-we]

Close the border, you don't get it

[noest]

of course more tax money for their gravy train, the only homelessness these agencies are solving are their own,

[Mario]

Ehh as a New Yorker I just walk by them . No one told them to come to this expensive city with no plan or money, sorry not sorry

[graceghazaii]

Of course they're gonna count the migrants. Boosting those numbers is the name of the game. The higher the number, the more $$$ they are budgeted for, the more $$$ they get to blow.

So we can get more federal money for our pockets and keep more American out in the cold got it

Isn't it against the law of sanctuary for "migrants " to be homeless?🤔

[dominicperez]

Oh NAH! If this is enforced now we'll never know which is a homeless citizen vs an illegal alien that is homeless. Kick them outta here immediately!

[fowlerja]

Is there a category for "homeless" and "illegal homeless"?

[vm]

homeless people are legal citizen and illegal immigrant is homeless

[zenolasmalls]

I wonder if they are going to count the homeless in the subway

[Chickenn]

Is there a plane ticket that I can buy to fly me far away from earth

[Dondokkens]

What does governor Kathy have to say about this?

[moniquejohnson]

[ExploringTheTube-fdoo]
