New York City Mayor Eric Adams brought a mix of messages to central Mexico's Puebla state on Thursday, as he tried to carefully walk the line of mayor of a city known for welcoming migrants from around the world, but currently struggling with a continuing influx of asylum seekers.
The Mayor of New York, Eric Adams, talks to the press in front of the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe after a visit to the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe in Mexico City, Wednesday, Oct. 4, 2023.
“We are neighbors. We are familia. Mi casa es su casa. Your struggles are my struggles,” Adams said inside the legislative chamber shortly after the state governor dubbed him “Mayor of Puebla York.”Speaking to reporters immediately afterwards, however, the mayor was more direct. Late Tuesday, New York City asked a court for the ability to suspend its unique, so-called “right to shelter” agreement that requires it to provide emergency housing to anyone who asks for it.
“These are human beings that have traveled in very dangerous terrains. And what he’s doing is exploiting this for political reasons,” said Adams.
