JUST IN - New York City’s mayor declares state of emergency over "migrant crisis" — US largest city allegedly struggles to respond to the influx.
At least 17,000 asylum seekers have been bused to NYC from other parts of the country, over 2,600,000 have entered the country since President #Biden took office.
#EricAdams has declared a state of emergency in #NYC after the 'sanctuary city' was unprepared to provide sanctuary to migrants arriving from Texas and elsewhere. In 2019 Adams said migrants would always be welcome in NYC, leaving him with 3 years to prepare for their influx into the city.
"This is a humanitarian crisis that started with violence and instability in South America, and it is being accelerated by American political dynamics," said Adams
