A migrant from Venezuela told The New York Post that he was enjoying his stay at a "migrant hotel" at the McCarren Play Center in New York City just days after mayor Eric Adams called for a state of emergency over the
migrant crisis.
"They treat us very well," 39-year-old Miguel Mujica told The Post. "There’s nothing they stop us from doing."
"I brought my wife and children to the pool on Sunday, and there was no problem," Mujica said. "We all swam between 12 p.m. and 5 p.m.," Mujica said, adding, "It’s a very nice pool."
The Post reported that Mujica came to the US with his family by crossing "the southern border into Texas." New York City was ideal because "this is where the shelters are," Mujica explained.
The migrant told The Post that "he earns between $700 and 800 a week, or what would amount to a roughly $40,000 annual cash salary — untaxed" by "working under the table doing demolition and construction."
