Mayor Eric Adams Heads to Mexico — NYC Migrant Crisis at “Breaking Point”
New York Mayor Eric Adams embarks on an “asylum seeker fact finding mission” to Mexico, Ecuador, and Colombia in response to the city’s dire situation. In August, Mayor Adams declared that New York City had reached a “breaking point” due to a massive surge in migrants. With over 100,000 asylum seekers arriving in the past year alone, the city faces a staggering financial burden, estimating $4.7 billion this year alone without proper support.
