In a bold response to the fallout from Democratic policies impacting his city, New York Mayor Eric Adams (D) is taking decisive action against the chaos caused by the influx of migrants. Adams has initiated legal proceedings against several Texas-based charter and bus companies, holding them accountable for the expenses incurred due to the transportation of border crossers and illegal aliens to New York City.
Under the policies of President Joe Biden's Department of Homeland Security (DHS), approximately 5,000 border crossers and illegal aliens are being released into the U.S. interior daily. Compounding the issue, around 34,000 individuals have arrived in New York City from Texas through buses contracted by Governor Greg Abbott (R), creating a situation reminiscent of the Wild West, and New York is bearing the brunt of the fallout.
NYC is desperate…"NYC Mayor Eric Adams Sues Texas Bus Companies, Not Joe Biden, for Crippling Costs of Illegal Immigration"…Next up the airlines (Joe's favored transportation method)…LOL

Governor Abbott's migrant busing strategy appears to be an attempt to shift the financial burden of the illegal immigration crisis, exacerbated under the Biden administration, onto sanctuary cities like New York City. Mayor Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul (D) are pushing back, announcing a lawsuit against 17 charter and bus companies contracted by Texas. They argue that these companies should be responsible for covering the staggering $708 million in costs associated with illegal immigration in New York City.
Mayor Adams is steadfast in his stance, characterizing Governor Abbott's migrant busing plan as "an attempt to overwhelm our social services system." He is resolute in opposing the chaos and inhumanity associated with the situation. In an additional display of commitment, Adams is implementing a 20 percent reduction in city services for New Yorkers to allocate resources to address the needs of border crossers and illegal aliens. This demonstrates his dedication to advocating for the people of New York.
The message is clear: it is time for Texas and the bus companies involved to acknowledge their responsibility and cease passing the financial burden onto hardworking Americans. Mayor Adams is unwavering in his pursuit of justice, signaling that he will not retreat in the face of this challenge.
