Two years ago, he promised asylum to migrants, criticizing the conservative-led southern states for their restrictive immigration policy, and now the Democratic leader is burying his own city.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams said he sees no end in sight to the raging migrant crisis, warning that the continued influx of illegal immigration will destroy New York. The democrat city manager
now calls on migrants to stay away
after more than 110,000 migrants have arrived in the metropolis since last spring, the number of migrants seeking accommodation and livelihood in the city is close to 60,000, writes V4na.com in its article .
We're getting 10,000 migrants a month, Adams said Wednesday at a town hall meeting on the Upper West Side, warning that public services are at capacity and the crisis shows no signs of abating. Adams also noted that
he had never seen a crisis in his career that he didn't see the end of - until now.
Adams said: "We have a budget deficit of 12 billion dollars, which we urgently need to reduce. All city services will be affected, it will affect everyone, even your neighborhood. I already said it last year, when there were 15 thousand. Now I say again, at 110,000, we will lose the city we knew," he added.
It is interesting that two years ago Adams did not see a problem with mass illegal immigration,
and on one occasion, he promised on his social media page that under his government, New York would remain a refuge for migrants chasing the American dream. At the time, he sharply criticized conservative-led southern states such as Texas for their restrictive immigration policies.
But in recent months, Adams has definitely changed his mind. In July, the Democratic mayor announced that
will be handing out leaflets at the US-Mexico border to dissuade migrants
about traveling to the city of empire, explaining that food and transportation are expensive in New York and that there is no guarantee that newcomers will have access to housing and social services.
