New Yorkers are running out of patience with the ongoing migrant crisis, according to a new poll which found that 82% of Empire State residents consider the ongoing influx of asylum seekers a “serious problem.”
A hefty majority of respondents in the poll, conducted by Siena College Research Institute, said that New York State should be working to stop the flow of migrants — with 58% saying leaders should keep migrants out of the state, compared with 36% saying they should continue allowing the influx of refugees.
