New York City Mayor Eric Adams expressed deep concern over the increasing number of illegal migrants flooding New York and other cities, labeling it a national issue requiring a nationwide resolution. The increase in immigrants can be directly linked back to President Biden’s border crisis, which is ongoing and has only worsened in recent weeks.

During an interview on “Good Day New York,” the morning show host questioned Adams about the migrant crisis and the absence of Biden in addressing the situation.

Adams said that the influx of migrants was not limited to New York City but was affecting major cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, El Paso, and Brownsville, Texas.

He stressed that no city should bear the burden alone and that a national solution was necessary.

“No cities should be [carrying this] burden. This is a national problem, and it needs a national solution,” he said.

Adams’ comments critical of the situation follow reports that he was removed from President Joe Biden’s National Advisory Board.

Politico was the first to report that Adams, along with several other lawmakers, who had been named to the board in March, were no longer included in the latest roster of prominent Democrats released by the campaign.

The mayor has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration’s handling of the migrant crisis at the southern border. He claimed that the issue was not about the asylum seekers and migrants themselves and that instead, the irresponsibility of the Republican Party was to blame for refusing to address real immigration reform.

Despite reports suggesting a decrease in migrant numbers following the expiration of the Title 42 public health policy, New York GovernorKathy Hochul stated that significant numbers were flooding into New York State.

She acknowledged the strain it placed on resources and commended Mayor Adams for his efforts in managing the challenging situation.

Title 42, implemented during the Trump administration to curb the spread of COVID-19, allowed authorities to expel migrants quickly upon their entry into the United States.

Its expiration has raised concerns about a potential continuation of the border crisis. With over 61,000 migrants already in New York State and more than 40,000 housed in New York City, officials express the urgent need for support as they face capacity limitations.
