Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams said President Joe Biden’s administration is partly to blame for the country’s struggles to handle asylum seekers and illegal border crossers attempting to enter the United States.
Adams fielded questions about America’s immigration and border security policies during a Tuesday press conference. During the press conference, reporters asked Adams about his criticism of Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has been sending busloads of migrants from his state to other parts of the country. One reporter asked Adams whether his criticisms of Abbott’s migrant busing policies could inflame anti-immigrant sentiments in New York.
