McCAUGHEY: New York City should challenge 'rights for migrants' legal movement

As a record number of migrants invade the U.S., wreaking pain on New York City and other communities, one group is winning big-time — public advocacy lawyers. Their business is to constantly sue to win more so-called rights for migrants. Rights to shelter, rights to meals, rights to health care and even the right to vote in local elections.

McCAUGHEY: Migrant food waste eating into New York City coffers

New York City Mayor Eric Adams recently warned of “extremely painful” cuts to city services to offset the money going to shelter and feed migrants. But even worse is how the money is being wasted. Migrants complain the prepared meals delivered to them three times a day — including chicken alfredo, beef enchiladas and even special halal meals for Muslims — aren’t to their liking or aren’t hot enough. They’re throwing the food away.

If you think offering migrants luxury hotel rooms, free meals, laundry service, transportation, health care and immigration lawyers is excessive, just wait until they can vote.

McCAUGHEY: Rent control is a disaster that needs to be stopped

America’s renters — more than one-third of the nation’s households — are in for trouble. Left-wing politicians are demanding rent regulation from coast to coast.
