I wonder if Tokyo has this issue.

If you have no taxable income, regardless of your immigration status, you qualify for Medicaid.

“Permanent Residence Under Color of Law, or PRUCOL, is a public benefit eligibility status, as opposed to an immigration status, that allows certain groups of individuals, including those seeking asylum, to be eligible for full Medicaid coverage. Eligibility for Medicaid depends on a variety of other factors (income, state residence, etc.), which PRUCOL applicants for Medicaid must also meet to be found eligible.”

Guess what, they all have no income and qualify.

Emergency care is not denied, but if you don’t have insurance they WILL send you a bill, and you are responsible for the bill. The city is covering the cost for the migrants. That’s the difference.

They get emergency Medicaid, which is essentially free healthcare. They can go to any emergency dept in the city and receive free care. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong, but I don’t see other country’s stepping up to the plate like we do.

The city literally just spent a billion dollars on the migrant crisis, can you show me an example of Norway doing the same for non citizen asylum seekers/migrants?

Does Norway accept and provide medical care for an unlimited amount of migrants?

Norway has a mostly homogeneous population of 5.5 million people total, for the entire country. Not comparable at all.

I hope someone told her it’s just a “perception” of crime.

People don’t want to live in the suburbs where a train comes every half hour during peak hours if you’re lucky, and there’s little to no overnight/off peak service.

Should write in a progressive candidate!

Well, crime is on the rise so that does kind of make sense.

Rikers is the only place that accused murderers get locked up at in this city, it’s implied.

Did they have any priors or were the “non-violent crimes” their only offenses?

So they pay their required-by-law overtime rate after 40 hours.

That’s a pretty controversial take for this sub.

If Biden didn’t change course, we would have continued to receive Venezuelan migrants and it wouldn’t have been temporary.

The majority of homeless are just “down on their luck” according to this sub, I can’t imagine they would do something like that. /s

PCP prob

People were literally calling for all corrections officers to be fired, who are largely PoC and women.

Show me any post that was actually positive on civil servants lol.

The majority of the sub is civil servant hating WFHers. Congrats to everyone that got an email! Great benefits, pension and salary, and also a greatly needed position.

You can always count on Braggs office to serve justice for the victims!
