Illegal immigrants in NYC refuse to leave taxpayer-funded hotel rooms …

Illegal immigrants staying in free New York City hotel rooms are sleeping in the street to protest their resettlement in a Brooklyn migrant shelter.

The immigrants, who entered the United States illegally across the southern border, were first placed in Midtown Manhattan's Watson Hotel, according to a report.

When they discovered Sunday that they were slated to be relocated to a Brooklyn Cruise Terminal migrant relief center, many broke out in protest.

Along with migrant activists, the illegal immigrants spent the night outside the Hell's Kitchen hotel and stayed there well into Monday morning.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) addressed the situation and promised that the migrant facility would have all the amenities required by the illegal immigrants and that they would still receive government support.

"This weekend, we began the process of moving single adult men from the Watson Hotel to Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, as we transition the hotel to meet the large number of asylum-seeking families with children," Adams said.

"More than 42,000 asylum seekers have arrived in New York City since last spring, and we continue to surpass our moral obligations as we provide asylum seekers with shelter, food, health care, education, and a host of other services," he added.

Some immigrants who initially went to the relief center returned to the hotel and argued that the new center lacked heating and bathroom space, according to the report.

"The facilities at Brooklyn Cruise Terminal will provide the same services as every other humanitarian relief center in the city, and the scheduled relocations to Brooklyn Cruise Terminal this weekend took place as planned," the city said in a statement. "We remain in serious need of support from both our state and federal governments."
