New York City has and will continue to do our part in the asylum seeker crisis. But we can't bear the costs alone — and we won't let those complicit in @GovAbbott's scheme get away with violating our state laws.

His statement:Mayor Adams has previously tried to block the bus companies from entering the city, but the illegal migrants seeking the free stuff that is on offer in the sanctuary city quickly found a workaround.
New York City has and will continue to do our part in the asylum seeker crisis. But we can't bear the costs alone — and we won't let those complicit in @GovAbbott's scheme get away with violating our state laws. We’re seeking approximately $700 million from 17 charter bus companies that transported migrants to NYC without paying to care for them. We'll see you in court.
It is belaboring the obvious to note that the 17 charter bus companies in question are a) doing what they were chartered and paid to do, and b) are in no way responsible for helping New York — again, a self-proclaimed sanctuary city — to pay for their accommodations. This is a catastrophic self-own for New York, which city sanctimoniously proclaimed its sanctuary city status when it cost them little; now that the Biden administration has thrown the southern border wide open, essentially ringing the dinner bell for illegals swarming into our major cities, Mayor Adams stands up and shouts, "I protest!"
His protests to the Biden administration, one might note, have come to naught.
While Mayor Adams protested as far back as last summer that the city had "no more room," it's been less than a year since he was still proclaiming that illegal immigrants were "welcome" in New York, although he hoped some would move to other parts of the state.
It's difficult to see what Mayor Adams hopes to achieve with this lawsuit. The bus companies are in no way responsible for the welcome mat that New York has laid out for this wave of illegal immigrants. Nor is Texas responsible for New York's sanctuary city status, and it is the height of arrogance for Mayor Adams to presume that Texas, simply because of their proximity to the border, should bear all of the costs of illegal immigration.
Indeed, all of the nation's various sanctuary cities and even states should now be putting their money (literally) where their mouths have been. Their city and state governments put these policies in place; their people voted for the people who favored these policies, and now they are getting the government they wanted, good and hard — and all that comes with it.
To Mayor Adams, one can only say this: "How is it up there, on your own petard?"
