Eric Adams warns of NYC service cuts to prioritize migrants as Title 42 expires: refuses to choose new arrivals over current New Yorkers

The annual "State of the City’s Economy and Finances" report released Thursday by the city comptroller projected $1 billion annually in spending through 2026 to cover housing, education, food and other expenditure for migrants. 

"Our shelter system is full, and we are nearly out of money, staff, and space. Truth be told, if corrective measures are not taken soon, we may very well be forced to cut or curtail programs New Yorkers rely on, and the pathway to house thousands more is uncertain," Adams said in a statement Sunday. "These are not choices we want to make, but they may become necessary, and I refuse to be forced to choose new arrivals over current New Yorkers. I’ll say it again — we need a plan, we need assistance, and we need it now."

In the past several months, New York City has already received more than 31,000 asylum seekers and currently has open 60 emergency shelters, four humanitarian relief centers and two welcome centers. Thousands of migrant children have been placed in schools. The mayor admitted the city "spent hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars paying to cloth, feed, house, and support this deeply in-need population."
