NY Officials to NYC Mayor: Stop Bussing Illegal Immigrants Upstate.

The Democrat Mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, is causing controversy by sending recently arrived migrants to other parts of the state without notifying local authorities or receiving their permission.

County authorities have demanded that Adams immediately cease his operations, as they have been receiving illegals by the busload.

New York’s migrant crisis has been blamed on the Biden administration by Republicans for its apparent unwillingness to secure the southern U.S. border with Mexico.

Over five million illegal immigrants have crossed into the United States since Biden took office.

NYC Unable to House or Feed Latest Wave of Illegal Immigrants

Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, some with criminal backgrounds, have already flooded the border regions since the beginning of the year, joining the millions already here.

State authorities in Texas have been sending the majority of border crossers to sanctuary cities like New York, which has seen its social services and shelter systems overwhelmed.

Adams said that the 65,000 illegal immigrants who have flooded into the City over the past year have caused its shelters to run out of room and that the rest of the state should share the burden.

“We believe the entire state should participate in a decompression strategy,” Adams said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday.

“And it’s unfortunate that there have been some lawmakers in counties that are not carrying on their role of ensuring that this is a decompression strategy throughout the state.”

Several New York counties have already declared states of emergency in an attempt to block the mayor’s efforts.

Rockland, Orange, and Onondaga counties have all filed in court to reverse the bussing efforts, saying that the hotels where the illegal immigrants are staying in are in violation of local ordinances.

NY Governor Accused of Inaction by Local Leaders

The crisis has put pressure on New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who has been blamed by county leaders and Republicans for not preventing Adams, a fellow Democrat, from carrying out his program.

Hochul’s management of the illegal migrant crisis and her open sympathy for the mayor’s actions has dismayed local leadership across the state.

Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano, who also happens to be a Democrat, said he was totally unaware that 40 migrant families were sent by Adams to a local Ramada Inn last week, until local police informed him.

Spano told Politico regarding Albany’s response, that state officials have not offered much assistance in providing social services and programs to the recent arrivals.

“This is a crisis. We all need to share in it. I get it. I’m not looking to make the refugees’ lives any more difficult than they already are, but to those just shipping people to places
