New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has expressed frustration at the illegal immigration crisis gripping the Big Apple, telling would-be asylum seekers to “go somewhere else” while throwing her weight behind a push to suspend the city’s right-to-shelter law amid the relentless influx.

Ms. Hochul made the remarks in a Wednesday interview on CNN, in which she said that New York City has run out of space to take in more illegal immigrants and that the city is at a breaking point due to the crisis.
