Fox News
New York City Mayor Eric Adams is hoping to send illegal migrants to college for free, with taxpayers footing the bill that is expected to cost around $1.2 million in the first year.
The pilot program will be overseen by Adams' newly created Office of Asylum Seeker Operations — which works on the coordination of the city’s continued response to a large influx of migrants with a focus on resettlement and legal services, as well as a new 24/7 arrival center for asylum seekers.

While the plan's total cost has not been disclosed, it is likely to cost taxpayers $1.2 million in the first year, based on the price of two semesters at SUNY Sullivan.
