Mayor Adams Sues Bus Companies for Bussing Immigrants

Republicans have come under scrutiny for bussing in illegal immigrants to blue states. Governors like Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) and Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) have carried out the controversial measure. In a bid to counter the move, New York Mayor Eric Adams (D) has now sued 17 bus companies for transporting illegal immigrants.

Mayor Adams has been heavily critical of Governor Abbotts’ efforts to send illegal immigrants to blue states. Governor Abbott has noted that the decision is to add pressure to President Joe Biden (D) and force him to address concerns at the border.

In suing the 17 bus companies, Mayor Adams is looking for reimbursement to for the city. Specifically, Mayor Adams is looking for $708 million that would compensate for food, shelter, and healthcare for the people that have been bussed in.

“New York City has and will always do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis, but we cannot bear the cost of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas, alone,” Mayor Adams said.

The lawsuit charges the bus companies with “bad faith” conduct and also with violating New York social service law.

Rolando Salinas Jr., the Mayor of Eagle Pass, Texas, discussed the border crisis with Anderson Cooper this week, warning that Eagle Pass cannot handle the amount of people that are coming across the border.

“I see thousands of people coming in without consequence,” Mayor Salinas said, a liberal mayor who’s been critical of President Biden’s handling of the border crisis.

Mayor Salinas went on to express that “we need an orderly system where you’re deporting people that come here illegally and don’t qualify for asylum immediately instead of having this approach of ‘come one, come all’. That’s what we’ve been seeing here in Eagle Pass, a city of 27,000 people, and we don’t have the resources to sustain this problem.”
