New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a decree on Friday enacting stricter regulations on migrants seeking shelter as the Big Apple’s immigration crisis continues to spiral out of control.
Adams said that the city came to an agreement with the Legal Aid Society to roll back the amount of time adult migrants can stay in the shelter system to approximately one month, a departure from what was previously allowed under the 1981 right-to-shelter law. New York City has been forced to make budget cuts to spend billions in taxpayer funds to deal with the crisis.
