New York counties declare emergency as Mayor Adams plans to bus illegal migrants from the border their way

Officials in suburban New York counties are vowing to fight plans by New York City Mayor Eric Adams to send asylum seekers north for temporary housing.

Neuhaus accused the mayor of reneging on his promise to send only 60 adult male migrant asylum seekers without notifying Orange County officials. He said the county could no longer rely on the representations of New York City officials.  Bradford Betz is a Fox News Digital breaking reporter covering crime, political issues, and much more. 

"[T]here is no reason to believe that these migrants or asylum seekers will leave Orange County after New York City ceases to pay for the housing and any services that are presently receiving in New York City, or that many thousands more migrants or asylum seekers will not be transported to Orange County," Neuhaus said. 

The County Executive predicted that a surge of migrants into the county will overwhelm city resources and, as such, there is "there is no legal basis to provide adequate services to these migrants or asylum seekers."
