Mayor Eric Adams has declared a state of emergency to help respond to the city’s migrant crisis, which he told reporters Friday will cost the city $1 billion this fiscal year.

“We now have a situation where more people are arriving in New York City than we can immediately accommodate, including families with babies and young children,” Adams said. “Once the asylum seekers from today’s buses are provided shelter, we would surpass the highest number of people in recorded history in our city’s shelter system.”

The mayor is calling for federal and state aid.

Adams said in September that officials were assessing how they will respond to the influx of migrants, including legal options.

 

Adams has said he has spoken with the mayor of El Paso and told him New York City cannot accommodate this many asylum seekers. He said the city has been in contact with Abbott’s office, adding that the Texas governor and his team have not been open to communication.

Adams reiterated that New York City is still a sanctuary city but stressed it is unable to handle such an overwhelming influx of migrants.

 

(The Mayor of El Paso is a Democrat)

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

So a sanctuary city with the resources as NYC is having problems with future "Dreamers"?  Maybe Adams should be calling for Biden and Mayorkas to secure the border.

Calling yourself a sanctuary city has consequences.

How is NYC, hone to nearly 60 billionaires and over 700 people with net worths of over $100M less able to accommodate migrants than El Paso?

 

Democrats running for office in Texas have no chance when independent  voters in Texas consider such illogic.  

 

From  google:

 

”The Big Apple is home to 345,600 millionaires, including 737 centi-millionaires (those with a net worth of US$100 million or more) and 59 billionaires, according to the Henley Global Citizens Report, compiled by London-based Henley & Partners in collaboration with New World Wealth, a global wealth intelligence firm”

Typical democrat.  Emotions over logic.

NYC requires a lot of money to maintain its brand image.  Besides, I think a lot of those rich folks moved.
