The first bus of migrants to New York City arrived at Port Authority Bus Terminal on Friday morning. It’s unclear why Abbott chose New York City as neither the mayor nor the City Council set federal immigration policy, but he appeared to object to New York’s status as a sanctuary city in a statement Friday.
He added, “New York will continue to welcome asylum seekers with open arms, as we always have, but we are asking for resources to help do so. We need Washington, D.C.’s assistance in dealing with the cruel political games being played by inept politicians like the governor of Texas.”declined an invitation
The Legal Aid Society and the Coalition for the Homeless released a joint statement that Abbott is “exploiting these migrants” for “some myopic political purpose,” but even so, the city must be ready to meet any demand of asylum-seekers.
