Mayor Eric Adams of New York City has been vocal about his concerns regarding the ongoing migrant crisis that has been affecting the city. While not directly calling out President Joe Biden, Adams has criticized the current administration’s border policies and implied that the situation has been deteriorating since Biden took office.
Adams has pointed out the impact of the influx of migrants on the city, which he believes is causing destruction and leading to huge costs to the city’s budget. In a recent panel discussion hosted by the African American Mayors Association in Washington, DC, he spoke passionately about the dire consequences of the crisis and called on the Biden administration for help.
Adams has also criticized other elected officials in the city for not doing enough to lobby for federal aid to deal with the costs of the migrant influx. He believes that the city’s agencies are being undermined by the lack of resources, and he urged his colleagues to step up and fight for the help that the city desperately needs.
During his speech, Adams also called on southern governors to continue sending people to New York City until he is willing to confront Biden more directly. He believes that it is important to keep the issue in the spotlight, and he hopes that by doing so, he can force the administration to take action to address the crisis.
