WATCH: 95-Year-Old Veteran Booted From Nursing Home To Make Way For New York City Migrants

On Tuesday, a 95-year-old Korean War veteran accompanied Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) at a press conference to discuss the impact of the growing migrant crisis on New York City that has forced him out of his nursing home with just two months' notice to find another place to live.

Veteran Frank Tammaro, who signed up to serve his country in 1950, told the assembled press about his experience of being kicked out of his facility in March. 

"The thing I'm annoyed about is how they did it, it was very disgraceful what they did to the people in Island Shores," the veteran explained. "They gave us time to get out but they never said when and they never said they were going to get us out. And then one day, there's a thing on the board. A notice on the board. You've got to be out by March 15th."

"Everything was done behind closed doors and we didn't have a chance to actually make any attempt to stop them because there wasn't enough time," Tammaro said, adding that he appreciates his family for supporting him.

"If it wasn't for my daughter, they would've been on the curb," he continued. "That was it. I said, 'No, no, no, no, you're not moving me,' and they said, 'Yes, yes, yes we are.' Everything was done behind closed doors – we didn't have a chance to actually make any attempt to stop them because there wasn't enough time."

According to Fox News, the migrant facility is set to open at the former nursing home this week as tens of thousands of migrants enter the Empire State each month.

"My blood pressure went through the roof when I found out Homes for the Homeless cut a deal with the City of New York to turn Island Shores into a migrant shelter," Rep. Malliotakis said. "Our tax dollars as citizens of New York should not be utilized to house citizens of other countries, especially at the expense of our senior citizens and veterans who put their lives on the line, paid taxes their whole lives, and built our communities."

As the situation in New York City continues to worsen, communities outside the urban area are facing the downstream effect of unfettered illegal migration. As New Yorkers suffer with the devastating consequences of an open border, they should remember that at the ballot box in November 2024.
