Mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency over New York City's migrant crisis Friday, pleading for financial assistance from the federal government.
Mayor Adams declared a state of emergency Friday over the city’s migrant crisis and pleaded for financial and legislative assistance from the federal government and state lawmakers.
To relieve the burden on shelters, Adams signaled last week that he planned to house some migrants in tents at an Orchard Beach parking lot in the Bronx. But earlier this week he reversed himself over concerns of flooding there. Instead, he opted to move the tent encampments to Randalls Island.

Kathy Hochul, and New York City mayor Eric Adams listen during a meeting at the FEMA Region 2 office in New York, Thursday, Sept. 22, 2022.
“Right now, I’m not going to disclose exact locations,” he said. “As soon as we get the approval from them — the inspections that state that they’re suitable for people to be inside — we’re going to make a formal announcement.” “It does not suspend all our city laws, but just the land-use laws,” she said, adding that more details would be “forthcoming.”. The Daily News at the time requested a list of the hotels they were referring to, but the Council still has not made it public.Before taking questions from reporters, Adams urged them to inquire with the Council as to why it has not yet released a list of potential hotels to house migrants.
