Illegal immigrants who arrived in New York City from southern border states are not entitled to benefits offered by the city’s “right to shelter” policy, Mayor Eric Adams said on Wednesday.
Speaking on WABC’s “Sid & Friends” radio show, the Democratic mayor was asked if he would ever consider ending New York City’s status as a “sanctuary city,” given that his administration struggles to accommodate the needs of tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who have been arriving by bus from border states since last spring.
