Parents and students across New York City protested Mayor Eric Adams’ (D) decision to begin filling public school gymnasiums with newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens, chanting that there should be “no shelter on school grounds.”
Across schools in New York City on Tuesday, parents and students protested Adams’ latest move to put hundreds of migrants in public school gyms, forcing schools to cut recess for students.
While students have their day-to-day school operations impacted, border crossers and illegal aliens living in the school gyms are enjoying a free stay with free pizza and sandwiches.
“Safety is first,” parents chanted outside a Brooklyn public school, also shouting, “No shelter on school grounds,” “No shelter on schoolyards,” and “Gyms are for children.”
“I’m not here for the politics, I’m here for our babies,” one parent said at a protest outside a school in Coney Island where migrants have already started living.
