New York Mayor Eric Adams said Wednesday that the illegal immigrants surging to New York will “destroy” his city.
The mayor’s comments marked a significant escalation in his rhetoric and offered a new challenge to the Biden administration, which has failed to stop the surge of people and has failed to offer the kind of financial support Mr. Adams and other local officials say is needed to accommodate all the new arrivals.
He said the city is getting 10,000 new migrants a month, which he has calculated will cost the city $12 billion over three years to live up to local laws that guarantee housing and other government services to everyone, regardless of legal status.He complained about “what they’re trying to do to us” — seemingly a jab at the Biden administration.
That sounded strikingly similar to the complaints of some Republicans, who say the pressing numbers of newcomers overwhelm the ability of the U.S. to welcome and assimilate them all.
