Democrat-run New York City is having taxpayers foot the bill for a homeless shelter reserved exclusively for transgender-identifying individuals.

Ace’s Place homeless shelter in Long Island City opened on Tuesday and will cost taxpayers $65 million over the next five years, the Daily Mail reported .

“Officials said the facility is the only of its kind in the entire nation and will offer up 150 beds to transgender New Yorkers in need,” according to the report.

Destination Tomorrow, a Bronx-based LGBTQ+ center, is running the facility. Sean Ebony Coleman, CEO of Destination Tomorrow, said the new shelter is named after his mother, whose nickname was “Ace.”
