As illegal immigrants continue to pour into New York City, Mayor Eric Adams has chosen to provide them with prepaid debit cards. Is this really a good idea?
From The Epoch Times. Illegal immigrants in the Big Apple will soon start receiving pre-paid debit cards that they must pledge to use only to buy food, according to New York City records and media reports.

Under the program, MoCaFi will begin delivering the cards to the Roosevelt Hotel, the first touchpoint for illegal immigrants arriving in the city, and will hand out them out “directly to asylum seekers receiving financial assistance.”
The first to receive the cards will be families with children under the care of NYC’s Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) agency. …
New York City Councilman Joe Borelli criticized the program, telling Fox 5 NY that it’s providing illegal immigrants with services on the taxpayer dime.
It comes as taxpayers in New York City face sharp cuts to services such as policing and education because the city has had to divert money to cover expenses associated with the influx of illegal immigrants.
Program Details
The mayor’s office said that the program will start by providing the pre-paid cards to 500 families …
“We will provide pre-paid debit cards to an initial 500 migrant families with children who may use the pre-paid cards exclusively at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets, and convenience stores to ensure the money is spent on food and baby supplies,” the City Hall statement reads, according to Fox 5 NY.
Recipients will have to sign an affidavit promising to spend the money on the cards only on food and baby supplies; they’ll face removal from the program if they do otherwise, according to the New York Post.
The size of the family will affect the amount provided on the pre-paid cards, with a family of four set to receive about $1,000 per month, according to the Post. …

Lord God, I pray for Godly wisdom for the warped mind of Mayor Adam’s. Let him see the truth of how much chaos he has created!
This is insanity to the max , what this administration wants is the agenda of the climate change. God created borders for people to live.. we can see it in the Bible since the beginning.
What this administration wants to do is create a complete caos in the Nation.
Father our only hope is in You, there is no other way that the USA can survive , remove this present fraud administration and give us a chance to turn from its wicked ways. This country is the only country in the world that has a Constitution based on the Bible, and from here the Gospel has been preached to whole world.
Lord we ask you that President Trump will be re-elected with a clean election.
This is the one you have chosen for a time like this.
The USA will be lifted up once again not only for itself but for the sake of the whole world, so China, Russia and other evil powers can be restrained and the gospel can be preached in Jesus Name.
Why are we rewarding people who are coming here illegal? God does not reward people who go against his will and we are to obey the laws of the land. God’s judgement is here.
It is not right that people come into this country illegally and get all kinds of privileges when our seniors and veterans don’t have enough money to have a decent life.
I know this is a spiritual battle and God allowed this.
God did now “allow” this, nearly as much as the silent church has allowed it to escalate to this point. Everything in society has advanced, except the power of God’s people. He hasn’t allowed this, we have, by not standing for Righteousness.
Unless the Spirit of the living God Almighty is living inside an illegal alien their promise is as dung. The city should feed one meal and transport them back 1-way PERIOD!
OUR OWN HOUSEHOLDS ARE VERY NEEDY AND GO WITHOUT…. GIVING OUR TAX $$$ WE EARNED IS WRONG ON ALL LEVELS! OUR VETERANS AND HOMELESS NEED 1ST, ILLEGALS NOOOOOO!!!!!!!
AND GOV JOBS IN NYC !
Why isn’t this done with our own homeless people and veterans on the streets? What they wouldn’t give for an extra amount of money to help them eat and give them hope.
Father, You are our provider and protector. It is from Your hand that we get the power to create wealth. Father, forgive us for being such horrible stewards of what You have entrusted to us. We ask You to thwart this insanity and to rebuke every attempt if the enemy to rob Your people. Please show them Who You are and the power of Your might. Have mercy on those whose money and hard work is being squandered and rise up to protect them and Your Name. Please continue to help the immigrants without the allowance of compromised ideas and robbery getting in the way of Justice. In Y’shua’s Name. Amen.
It’s outrageous that leaders are spending tax dollars. They should use their own money if that’s what they want to do.
It would be better spent on returning them to the country they illegally came from. At least that would only be a one time expense. With the current system they will be paying them indefinitely!
HORRIFIC PRIORITIES, praying these policies of Not America First be undone.
Although this border issue is horrible, most illegals are pouring in because our own government invited them. God Himself is able to stop this crisis but many of our hearts have been a bit hardened to say the least. Many of us have trusted in man rather than God. Many of us have turned a blind eye to the horrors of sex trafficking, the pouring in of drugs, child neglect, abuse and the murder of abortion not because we have thought that it’s all okay but because our lives were too busy and perhaps even a bit comfortable to worry or even think that it could ever get this bad.! Now instead we must pray as Jesus instructed us to do in Matthew 5:43-45: “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. ‘ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven.”
