New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a plan to transport willing migrants to other neighboring New York communities ahead of an expected surge of migrants following the expiration of Title 42 next week. The program will provide temporary sheltering in nearby New York counties to single-adult men seeking asylum who are already in the city’s care. The program will launch with two hotels located in Orange Lake and Orangeburg, with the potential to expand. The announcement comes on the heels of an internal briefing memo obtained and first reported by CNN that shed light on a variety of options city officials were weighing to help weather the expected surge.
