Adams admits NYC schools, healthcare ‘inundated’ by migrant influx, but blames ‘callousness’ of border states

New York City Mayor Eric Adams admitted Sunday that public schools, the healthcare system and infrastructure are going to be “inundated” with the influx of migrants from the U.S.-Mexico border.

As illegal immigrants and other migrants arriving to the Big Apple on buses from southern border states stretch the city’s homeless shelters thin, Adams implored that all New Yorkers must welcome and fall in line with the city’s plans to house the influx of people, saying: “Everyone’s block is going to be impacted by this.”

“We’re looking at the potential of emergency shelters in hotels, in other facilities. We want to get our faith-based community involved. If there ever was an all-hands-on-deck moment this is it,” Adams said at an unrelated press conference, before criticizing the “callousness” of southern border states, instead of the Biden administration for its immigration policy.
