Several House Democrats were met with protests in New York City on Friday as they held a press conference to discuss the strain that sheltering illegal immigrants and asylum applicants has put on the city’s resources.

Around a dozen House Democrats, including several who represent New York City, toured Manhattan’s Roosevelt Hotel on Friday to see firsthand how the building is now being used to shelter migrants arriving in the city.
