Stunning Hypocrisy – NYC Mayor, Eric Adams, Sues Bus Companies In Order To Stop Illegals From Reaching His Sanctuary City
By Sundance
This latest action by Democrat New York City Mayor Eric Adams is remarkable. Even the leftist media are stunned at the action being taken by Mayor Adams in order to stop illegal aliens from reaching his sanctuary city. The ideological hypocrisy is off the charts.
Mayor Adams has brought a lawsuit [SEE PDF HERE] against the charter bus companies who are transporting the migrants who crossed the southern U.S. border. Adams is relying on a 19th century New York State law that prohibits anyone from assisting in the relocation of a person, to New York, who cannot sustain themselves.
From The Lawsuit
“Section 149 of the New York Social Services Law requires that “[a]ny person who knowingly brings, or causes to be brought, a needy person from out of state into this state for the purpose of making him a public charge . . . Shall be obligated to convey such person out of state or support him at his own expense.”
Via CBS New York – In a stunning and unexpected move to stop Texas Gov. Greg Abbott from shipping busloads of asylum seekers to New York City, Mayor Eric Adams has filed a lawsuit against 17 charter bus companies used by the Lone Star State.
He wants the bus companies to reimburse the city for the hundreds of millions of dollars it’s cost to shelter them. Just call it, the Empire State strikes back, with a bold counter punch to Abbott.
“New York City has and will always do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis, but we cannot bear the cost of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas, alone,” Adams said.
The mayor sued the bus companies who, since the spring of 2022, have been used by Abbott to ship asylum seekers to New York, with officials showing them maps, giving them bar-coded bracelets with their destinations clearly marked, and then checked by drivers to make sure they land in the city.
The suit seeks $708 million to compensate the city for the cost of shelter, food, and health care. “These companies have violated state law by not paying the cost of caring for these migrants,” Adams said.
Abbott, the RINO, WEF darling, Bushie, is not without guilt either. Why has he waited to start his 'actions'?.......when this has been going on for almost 3 years? Stunning neglect of Texas voters, as well as other Southern governors. In fact, other govs guilty as well.
Adams, not the brightest bulb, is obviously desperate.........
