CNN: NYC Mayor Calls on FEMA to Stop Funding Cities That Are Transporting Migrants to New York
‘Officials expect a further surge in border crossings when a pandemic-era rule called Title 42 expires in less than two weeks from now’
EXCERPT:
WHITFIELD: “New York Mayor Eric Adams is calling on FEMA to withhold funding from cities seeking asylum seekers to his city, or rather sending asylum seekers to his city. Governors from Texas and Arizona began sending buses full of asylum seekers to Northeastern cities like New York and Washington, D.C. last year. An action they said was meant to send a message to the Biden Administration and Democratic cities that border states are bearing too much of a burden for the migrant crisis. But now New York’s overtaxed shelter system is struggling to keep up. And officials expect a further surge in border crossings when a pandemic-era rule called Title 42 expires in less than two weeks from now.”
