Mayor Eric Adams (D) says New Yorkers must be “on board” with having their schools, hospitals, and neighborhoods burdened by an “influx” of illegal immigration to the region as a result of President Joe Biden’s policies, Breitbart reports.
During a press conference this week, Adams warned the city’s nearly 8.4 million residents — who remain some of the most tax-burdened people in the United States — to be prepared to have their schools, hospitals, roads, and neighborhoods inundated with border crossers and illegal aliens who are arriving by the tens of thousands every month.
“Number one, this is an opportunity for New Yorkers to move away from ‘Not In My Backyard.’ We all must share the crisis,” Adams said. “Our approach has been to divide up the homeless issue even prior to the asylum seekers by councilmanic districts.”
“Now with this influx of people seeking asylum and support, now we have to go beyond that,” Adams continued. “We’re looking at the potential for emergency shelters in hotels and other facilities … if there was ever an all-hands-on-deck moment, this is it … our system was inundated with those who were seeking shelter because of the callousness of those other states that were pushing them out.”
Adams warned that “everyone’s” neighborhood in New York City will be burdened by the waves of border crossers and illegal aliens being released every day into the U.S. interior. New Yorkers, Adams said, must accept that reality:
We’re here, we’re receiving them and everyone is going to have to be on board. And we can’t have the historical “I believe people should be housed but just don’t house them on my block.” Everyone’s block is going to be impacted by this. And so we have to add our advocacy with our ability to help our neighbors. We need everyone on board with this.
As I said last week, our schools are going to be impacted, our healthcare system is going to be impacted, our infrastructure is going to be impacted … we’re going to need all New Yorkers to be with us on this.

Unbelievable!!!! NYC is finished.
send them to Delaware basement and Washington DC only
NIMBY is as New York as Fifth Avenue. No, Mayor Adams, we New Yorkers don’t have to follow the slumbering plans of disingenuous politicians. Put them all in AOC’s district, let her feed, clothe, and medicate them. New York is no longer a joke; it’s become the punchline.
“Stand by to repel boarders!”
Eric Adams while running for mayor said he would make the city a sanctuary city. He’s got it and now the city will suffer.
“Groise tzores”
You know it will not happen in the rich and fancy neighborhoods but surely in our neighborhoods
What kind of silly government invites illegals into its borders but are forbidden to get a job. If they are hired but a law abiding, tax paying citizen, the employer is guilty of a penalty for hiring someone without a work permit.
The illegal immigrants are more civil than many of the legal citizens who were educated and raised in New York City.
New York would be better off if they exported the residents of the housing projects and replaced them with illegal immigrants
the illegal immigrants are more civilized than many of the legal citizens of new york city. New york city would be better off if they exported the residents of the NYCHA projects and were replaced with illegal immigrants
amen to that
If establishing a Sanctuary City is illegal, why hasn’t the Mayor and City Council members arrested? Are they allowed to break the law? What message is the Mayor sending?
