Breaking: NYC Mayor Declares State of Emergency over Influx of Illegal Immigrants

New York City mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency on Friday in response to an influx of migrants arriving in the city.

Adams said at least 17,000 asylum seekers have arrived in the city by bus from other parts of the country since April.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott began busing migrants from the Lone Star State to New York City and Washington, D.C., in the spring. 

Abbott previously said he decided to send busloads of migrants to Washington, D.C., and New York City "because of President Biden's continued refusal to acknowledge the crisis caused by his open border policies," saying that "the State of Texas has had to take unprecedented action to keep our communities safe."

"In addition to Washington, D.C., New York City is the ideal destination for these migrants, who can receive the abundance of city services and housing that Mayor Eric Adams has boasted about within the sanctuary city," he said when the first bus arrived in New York.
