Mayor Adams: Influx of Illegal Aliens a 'Real Burden' on New Yorkers
Adams asserted that asylum seekers have protected status, and that while they're residing in New York City, his administration has the obligation to provide them resources.

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



During a press conference Tuesday, Mayor Eric Adams said that the influx of illegal aliens has proven a "real burden" on New York City's safety net and public services.

"This is a real burden on New Yorkers as we're trying to do the right thing. We already have an overburdened shelter system. So now we're talking about food, clothing, school. This is going to impact our schools because we do not turn away individuals because they are undocumented," Adams said.

"Translation services. There is just a whole host of things that this is going to produce," he added, referring to the expected negative externalities from the surge of asylum seekers arriving in the city. "We need help."

On Tuesday, Adams petitioned the federal government to provide aid to support the city as it accommodates the large numbers of immigrants. Over 2,800 people have entered New York City's shelter system, he said.

"Currently, New York City is experiencing a marked increase in the number of asylum seekers who are arriving from Latin America and other regions. In some instances, families are arriving on buses sent by the Texas and Arizona governments, while in other cases, it appears that individuals are being sent by the federal government," Adams said in a prepared statement.

Adams asserted that asylum seekers have protected status, and that while they're residing in New York City, his administration has the obligation to provide them resources.

"If we do not get these urgently needed resources, we may struggle to provide the proper level of support our clients deserve, while also facing challenges as we serve both a rapidly growing shelter population and new clients who are seeking asylum. We are calling on the federal government to partner with New York City as we help asylum seekers navigate this process, and to provide financial and technical resources," Adams wrote.

Last month, the New York supreme court struck down a recently passed law that allowed non-citizens to vote in local elections. The "Our City, Our Vote" law would've given the right to vote to an estimated 800,000 adults to vote for offices, including mayor. Staten Island justice Ralph J. Porzio decided that enfranchising non-citizens with voting rights would require a referendum, according to the New York Times.

So Biden lets them in and Adams wants the American taxpayer to pay for them.

  I believe it was Donald Trump who had the right policy - Let asylum seekers wait in Mexico!

That's not true Perrie. Don't you recall our discussion of the NYC Mayoral race? Once it got to the general election between Adams and Sliwa, I said now You're ok. Remember?  They were both singing LAW & ORDER loud and clear. I gave Adams plenty of time to perform as Mayor.

First of all the wall never got fully built because of democrat resistance. It cost the taxpayer more to not finish it under Biden than to simply put up the wall panels that are rotting along the border. As for the "Remain in Mexico" policy of Donald Trump - it proved to be the most effective asylum policy the US ever deployed on the border. Biden ended it and stubbornly defied Court orders to reinstitute it right up until he got a ruling he wanted.  

And we haven't even discussed the Fentanyl that's flowing across the border!

Still think everything is fine along the border?

It seems we're already "owing" them.  Just this late winter here, my brother stopped to see if a group of people needed assistance for their new car was stuck in the ditch after skidding out on the ice and snow, not one of them could speak english, they instead pulled out their new cell phone and called someone to translate for them, my brother found out they had just came from Guatemala and bought the house down the road with the new pickup truck in the driveway and all of them were wearing new winter clothing including boots and Carhartt's.  It didn't come up in the conversation just exactly how they ended up in this area in the middle of nowhere, my brother didn't think to ask at the time and they have since moved on.

The thing is in order to get to the US, the usual step is through a cartel, how are they able to afford what they now have and pay the cartel also?  If it is our government that is directly paying or guaranteeing reimbursement to the immigrants what they owe the cartels (it could also be through a foundation, I wonder who could be financing that) then our government is funding human and drug trafficking.

IF YOUR TIME IS SHORT

  • The federal government transports adult detainees in its custody from one facility to another, or from one U.S. city to another during deportation proceedings.

  • The vast majority of people on the flights are unaccompanied minors who crossed the border, requested asylum under immigration law, and are being released from federal custody to a parent or sponsor.

  • Some of these flights happen at night, but they are not covert operations. The same types of flights were done by the Trump administration.

Texas has made it clear they don't want them but your solution seems to be to shove them down the throat of Texans and then walk away. New York city seems to want them but then they have an issue when they get them.

That's odd, since this is what a very non partisan metrotrends said:

The current metro area population of New York City in 2022 is   18,867,000 , a 0.23% increase from 2021. The metro area population of New York City in 2021 was 18,823,000, a 0.1% increase from 2020.

New York City Metro Area Population 1950-2022 - Macrotrends

And even if we believe your numbers, we are a city of 8.82 million as of 2021. That means our net loss is only 1.5% of our population.

Welcome to 2022 America.  Apparently these politicians have finally pulled their heads out of their backsides.  Now they need to pull their thumbs out of their backsides and do something.

New Yorkers will obviously blame Greg Abbott; that would be the politically anal thing to do.  But Abbott didn't invite these migrants into Texas.  That's what New York politics has done.  Abbott is only sharing the rewards that New York politics has been advocating.  Abbott didn't create this mess.

Nice to the reality of the issue finally dawn on poor Mayor Adams.  Suddenly it's  a problem when it happens in his backyard.

By all means, every border state should bus every illegal immigrant it comes across to states whose congressional delegations have worked against border security.  They created the problem, they refuse to solve and they should deal with the costs to the extent possible.

There were more than  207,000 migrant encounters  in June alone,

Biden, the left and the Democrats are full of shit.  You wouldn't have that many encounters with a secure border.  

A high-level CBP source told Fox News last month that there have been 440,000 known gotaways since the fiscal year began in October -- with over 50,000 in May. Combined with the 400,000 known gotaways since the beginning of FY 2021, that means that more than 800,000 illegal immigrants have gotten past agents since October 2020

So under 1 million illegals just under Biden's watch.

I'm sorry, but I specifically referred to  Congress  (and the President) who refuse to secure our border.  Tell, me did did NYC vote for Biden, Schumer,  etc..?  But tell me, did Adams revoke NYC's status as a "sanctuary city?"  NYC elects opponents of border security and immigration enforcement. It's crazy   to pretend otherwise. 

It's amazing to me the Democratic Party has fought tooth and nail against enforcement of border security and deportations.  Yet they cry unfair when the policies they support come back to bite them. 

Democrats support illegal immigration.   Why try and pretend otherwise?
