NYC's Migrant Credit Card Plan Sparks Controversy

Texas Governor and celebrities criticize the $53 million program aimed at providing migrants with food purchase credit cards.

  • Texas Gov. Greg Abbott criticizes NYC Mayor Eric Adams' plan to provide migrants with credit cards, calling it 'insanity' and 'offensive'.
  • 50 Cent, along with other celebrities, questions the NYC migrant credit card program, suggesting 'maybe TRUMP is the answer'.
  • The NYC program aims to give migrants more freedom in food choices, with a family of four potentially receiving $1,000 a month.
  • Critics argue the program could encourage more illegal immigration and misuse of taxpayer money.
  • The program is part of NYC's efforts to manage over 150,000 migrants that have arrived since 2022, with a potential $12 billion cost over three years.
