What’s The Cost Of Cities Dealing With Fake Asylum Seekers?

It’s a lot, and, unsurprisingly, it includes a lot of taking advantage of taxpayer money because government is not responsible

NBC 5 Investigates finds hidden details on cost of migrant crisis in Chicago

They arrived by the bus load. And later by air. More than 52,000 newly arriving migrants – mostly from the South American countries like Venezuela or Colombia – have come to Chicago over the past two years. (snip)

There were questions and criticisms over the cost and lack of transparency from City Hall over how hundreds of million of dollars were spent.

To date, the City of Chicago has spent more than $612 million providing emergency shelter and other services.

NBC 5 Investigates found the bulk of that money – nearly $500 million – has gone to two companies:

Kansas-based Favorite Healthcare Staffing, which staffed the shelters and Kentucky-based Equitable Social Solutions, which together with another company, Reloshare, helped identify property owners and turned once-vacant warehouses in Chicago into migrant hotels.

So, not even to Illinois companies. Imagine what the city could have done with that money to help the homeless and those having trouble? To implement law and order in more than just the rich and toney neighborhoods?

NBC 5 Investigates was first to report how Favorite Healthcare Staffing routinely billed the city for 84 hours per week – per staffer, including overtime – rates that city alders called “exorbitant” even after the contract was re-negotiated to lower the hourly costs.

When it came to the buildings-turned-hotels with Equitable Social Solutions, some building owners were guaranteed $150,000 a month if hundreds of migrants remained in their building.

But that is information the city kept secret – hidden from public view until NBC 5 Investigates found it in an obscure lawsuit.

Funny how Democrats do not like to tell the peasants what’s going on.

Migrant crisis spurred nearly 3 million overtime hours for two NYC agencies— costing taxpayers $139M

New York City’s biggest overtime hogs for a second straight year are mostly rank-and-file workers responsible for tackling the Big Apple’s $6 billion-plus migrant crisis, The Post has learned.

Fifty-one of the 100 city employees who racked up the most OT during the fiscal year ending June 30 work at the Departments of Social Services and Homeless Services, and their duties include assisting migrants, an examination of city payroll records shows.

Leading the way was Kashwayne Burnett, a DSS bookkeeper who worked 3,303 hours of overtime in the agency’s Manhattan office. That comes to roughly 14 hours a day, seven days a week. The 10-year veteran’s $164,760 in overtime pay more than tripled his $60,445 base salary.

Does anyone believe that any of these people are really working that many hours? Is there anyone in the Sanctuary City New York government who audits this?
