New York City Mayor Eric Adams predicted last night that the influx of more than 110,000 migrants will "destroy" New York City and continued his demands for the federal government to step up efforts to address a "national crisis," the Daily News website reports today (Sept. 7, 2023).
Adams' comments represent perhaps his starkest rhetoric yet on the situation, which began to take shape in the spring of 2022 when asylum seekers started flooding into the city after crossing into American border states.
"I don't see an ending to this. This issue will destroy New York City. We're getting 10,000 migrants a month," he said at a town hall-style meeting on the Upper West Side. He added, "The city we knew, we're about to lose."
