TL;DR

NYC Mayor Eric Adams is seeking to suspend the "right to shelter" for migrants, claiming that the city can no longer guarantee housing for the tens of thousands of illegal immigrants arriving. Adams petitioned a judge to clarify the city's obligation or lack thereof. He stated that being dishonest about the situation will only result in the system collapsing, and the government partners need to do their share. The city is estimated to spend $4.2 billion on costs related to migrants and asylum seekers that would be spent through June 30, 2023, and the end of fiscal year 2024.
