Residents and Republicans held a Feb. 7 rally outside a soon-to-open migrant shelter on Bruckner Boulevard and East 141st Street, marking the second time this week that demonstrations broke out at the 2,200-bed facility slated to open late this month.
With signs reading “Bronx First” and “Red Wave > Migrant Wave,” members of the newly-formed Bronx Caucus of the New York Young Republicans Club and others gathered to make their opposition known and blame Democratic leadership for allowing the shelter.
