Rep. George Santos blasted a migrant tent city at the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center just over the Nassau County border in Queens.
Santos held a press conference at the site this morning. He said the nation needs to close the border and stop accepting migrants.
The embattled congressman went on to say the situation is having a negative impact on New York City and the surrounding suburbs.  
Santos also highlighted the need for more immigration judges to help with the backlog of cases for asylum seekers already in the country.
