New York City officials expect at least 1,000 children from asylum-seeking families to enter the school system this fall, as the city struggles to find solutions to wave after wave of migrants being bussed in from Texas.
The city says more than 6,000 asylum-seekers have been processed in the last three months, many of them children" on Friday, an effort to expedite the process of getting those kids into schools, and assist with needs like transportation, food and clothing.
A month ago, Mayor Eric Adams put migrant issue front and center, issuing a statement saying the city was being overwhelmed and needed federal aid. After a sharp war of words between Adams and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, Texas began bussing migrants directly to New York City earlier this month, with sometimes hundreds coming a day.
The city has already acknowledged that on two nights, it violated the law by not placing a total of five migrant families in shelters by a mandatory deadline, and instead keeping them at PATH, the city's shelter intake center in the Bronx.
