New York City Mayor Eric Adams is warning residents of the Big Apple that there is nothing they can do to stop migrants sleeping on the streets, as the sanctuary city scrambles to contain an out-of-control crisis.
Adams, who slashed budgets in multiple departments due to the spiraling costs of the migrant crisis said on Tuesday that the goal is not to have people sleeping on the streets, but the "visible signs of this crisis is going to start to show itself."
Adams said that now over 140,000 migrants have come into the city since last year and "thousands are still coming in each week" and numbers are increasing.
"Believe it or not, there are migrant and asylum seekers who are saying, ‘We want to sleep on the streets.’ And so people have a right to do so, we need to be clear on that in New York City, because of the city council’s actions people have a right to sleep on the streets that we cannot stop. I want New Yorkers to understand that."
In terms of how the city will deal with the crisis he said "every day there is a level of maneuvering that we have to do to deal with the flow of migrants and asylum seekers here."
