Shelter changed from Orchard Beach to Randall’s Island for fear of floods | Univision 41 New York WXTV

Minutes after the mayor announced the change of location, state senator Jessica Ramos criticized the shelter held on Randall Island. She says the place is isolated and far from the communities that can help the migrants. “This is unacceptable. There is a lot of empty space for commercial offices. Redirect it for asylum seekers and our homeless families,” the senator said in her tweet.
