Mayor Adams announces executive order aimed at restricting Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's migrant busing

The executive order mandates migrant charter buses must announce their arrival 32 hours in advance and can only drop off migrants between 8:30 a.m. and 12 p.m.

Mayor Eric Adams issued an executive order Wednesday to restrict the flow of migrant charter buses sent by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to New York City.

Adams said the order mandates any buses carrying migrants arrive in the city only between 8:30 a.m. and noon on weekdays. The buses’ arrival must also be announced 32 hours in advance, he said. The order specifically applies to buses contracted by the state of Texas — whose governor Adams routinely blames for sending asylum seekers into the five boroughs.

The announcement came during a joint briefing with the mayors of Chicago and Denver. The three cities have formed a coalition to press the White House and federal government for more migrant aid as each metropolis grapples with the economic and governmental burden of housing, feeding and educating tens of thousands of migrants.

Lol, if you’ve ever traveled by bus in new York state you’ll know there are men with guns who stop the bus and ask to see your papers at least twice before you can get to the city

As an NYC taxpayer, I’ll say that I am glad they’re better off here than in TX, but I wish this weren’t some cunty stunt by Abbott and, rather, a genuinely well-coordinated dealing-with-the-situation.

Oh, and I really hate to give Addams credit for anything, ever, but this was pretty clever (as a political maneuver— just maybe not really helping matters with immigrants that much considering the housing issues).

Perhaps the signals a reversal in policy, or, at least, a reversal in the disaster in how he’s been handling things recently. If he is asking for lead time in immigrant bus arrivals, perhaps he has a plan for provisioning space for them. That, at least, signals much more good news to come on the immigrant housing front.
