New York Republicans and Democrats are urging President Joe Biden, Gov. Kathy Hochul (D), and Mayor Eric Adams (D) to back off turning “historic gem” Fort Wadsworth, built in 1663, into a migrant camp for thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens.

Besides sending a letter to Biden, Hochul, and Adams over the plans, Malliotakis is filing legislation that would block federal and state funds from being used to turn Fort Wadsworth into a migrant camp.

Many Democrats are also supporting the legislation, including Richmond County District Attorney Michael McMahon, State Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton, City Councilwoman Kamillah Hanks, State Assemblyman Charles Fall, and State Assemblywoman Jamie Williams.
