  Only $19 million of the $59 million that Musk highlighted in his tweet will go toward housing migrants in hotels, luxury or otherwise, officials said.

  “We have already spent over $7 billion on this crisis alone, and the previous administration committed only $237 million in funding to help house the migrants in our care and for future services,” the City Hall statement reads.

  “We have continued to receive previously allocated reimbursements through the past week. We will discuss this matter directly with federal officials.”

  I am not sure how much this is a refutation of what Musk stated, nor how much of what was stated by them is true.
