NYC to distribute flyers warning immigrants to stay away.

New⁣ York City Mayor⁢ Urges‌ Immigrants ⁢to Consider Other Cities

New York City Mayor ​Eric Adams ‍made⁤ a significant announcement on Wednesday, ​revealing​ a new initiative​ aimed ⁢at​ immigrants arriving at the city’s border. In‍ an‍ effort to ‌manage the⁢ influx of immigrants, Adams plans ‌to distribute‌ flyers discouraging them from ‍relocating to⁢ New York ​City.

“There​ is no guarantee that the city‍ will ⁤be able‍ to provide‍ new arrivals⁣ with⁤ shelter and services,” the ​flyer⁢ states. It goes on to suggest ​that immigrants‍ consider other⁣ cities when deciding where to settle in the​ United States.

This move​ is‌ part of Adams’s⁣ broader plan to limit⁢ the amount of time⁣ immigrants⁤ can⁣ stay in New⁢ York City’s shelter system to ​60 ⁤days.​ Currently, the city ‍shelters immigrants under its right-to-shelter ‌law,⁤ which Adams’s administration is challenging‌ in​ court to⁢ exclude⁤ single⁤ adults.

Addressing the Immigration Crisis

According to⁤ Adams, the city has already provided shelter for over ​90,000 immigrants.⁣ However, with⁣ more than 54,800 ​asylum-seekers⁣ still in​ their ⁤care, the ‍mayor emphasized the need‌ for ​additional‌ support from‌ state‍ and federal partners.

“For more than ⁢a year now, ⁤New​ York ​City ⁢has responded ⁣to ⁤this⁣ crisis alone — we ‍need our state ‌and federal partners to‍ step ⁣up,” Adams‌ stated during​ a press ‍conference.

Adams’s plan ⁤aims to intensify casework services for adult⁣ asylum-seekers over ‍the next two months, ensuring that they can progress on their journey​ while freeing up beds for children and families.

Controversy and Mockery

Unsurprisingly,⁣ Adams’s announcement drew criticism⁣ and ⁤mockery from Republicans.‌ The official GOP Twitter account⁤ sarcastically referred to ⁣the flyer as “not very progressive of them.”

Despite the backlash, Adams remains‌ committed ⁤to​ his plan.⁢ Under the city’s​ right-to-shelter law, individuals have‍ been‍ entitled⁤ to‌ housing for as ⁣long as ⁤they need it. However,‌ Adams’s new ‍directive⁤ will ⁢require‍ individuals to reapply‌ for ⁣their spot⁣ after 60 days, ​prioritizing shelter beds for families⁣ and assisting single‍ adults in finding alternative ​accommodations.

The right-to-shelter law has been⁣ in effect since ‍1981, obligating‍ the city to provide housing for⁣ every⁣ homeless person ⁢who seeks it.
