Democratic mayors who have struggled to address an influx of illegal immigrants in their cities are taking out their frustrations on the Biden administration, demanding the White House grant them resources to manage the overflow, according to a Wednesday Politico report.
"What's callous is how we have been ignored as a city. And now I have to make tough decisions on the resources of New York," said New York City mayor Eric Adams at a Wednesday press conference. "It is time for the federal government to step up."
Adams's comments this week came as New York faces a surge of illegal immigrants bused in from Republican states, including Texas and Florida. Adams on Tuesday said Democratic Colorado governor Jared Polis is also planning to send migrants to New York.
