NYC launches $53M program to give pre-paid debit cards to migrants to spend in BODEGAS: Users must sign affidavit promising only to use card for food and baby supplies, with family of four set to get $1,000-a-month
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Giving the voters what they demanded, good and hard.
  • Migrants staying at the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan will be given pre-paid cards to spend on food, instead of the city providing meals in the hotel

  • The cards can only be used at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets and convenience stores

  • A spokesperson for the mayor said the pilot program is expected to save New York City more than $600,000 per month, or $7.2 million annually
