“We write following reports that your administration is actively settling migrants in Upstate New York communities,” The letterThe following was obtained from the New York Post.

“[W]e wish to express our outrage at the secrecy with which your administration has and continues to carry out these national relocation operations,” The lawmakers wrote. “This unprecedented influx of migrants into the United States is an obvious sign of your administration’s failed policies at the Southern Border.”

The letter mentioned a report of over 30 Columbian migrants living within Jamestown, a city with just over 28,000 inhabitants. The Western New York town lies 285 miles from New York City.
