New York City Comptroller Brad Lander is calling on the federal government to “do more” and help speed up work authorizations for illegal immigrants by waiving application fees.
Speaking to PIX11 News on Sept. 13, Mr. Lander, a Democrat, noted the surge in immigrants crossing the southern border and locating to New York—amid other things—is expected to create a $12 billion budget deficit as the city struggles to keep up with the influx.
