With New York City still receiving busloads of foreign nationals who have illegally entered the country, Mayor Eric Adams has announced the city will set up massive tent structures to provide shelter for those individuals.
Adams, in a statement, said the tents will be the “first touchpoint for asylum seekers,” with officials providing a litany of services for them. He added that it is not like the city’s homeless crisis but instead compared it to the immigrants who came to Ellis Island on boats more than a century ago.
