NYC Mayor Never Guessed Migrants Would Take Trains Instead of Buses

Illegal immigrants bound for New York City are now taking trains into the Big Apple after Democratic Mayor Eric Adams issued an executive order last week seeking to curb the busloads of migrants that enter the city.

Adams’ executive order limits when migrant buses can come into the city and requires bus drivers who know they are transporting illegal immigrants to give the city a 32-hour notice of their arrival. According to New Jersey officials, however, bus drivers are working around Adams’ executive order by dropping migrants off at train stations throughout New Jersey, where the illegal immigrants then board a train heading into NYC, The Hill reported.

“Our Administration has tracked the recent arrival of a handful buses of migrant families at various NJ TRANSIT train stations,” said Tyler Jones, a spokesman for New Jersey Democratic Governor Phil Murphy. “New Jersey is primarily being used as a transit point for these families — all or nearly all of them continued with their travels en route to their final destination of New York City.”
