The city is spreading a new message to asylum seekers who may be thinking about heading to New York City: don't do it.
That message is the theme of a flyer which City Hall has shared with community organizations and the federal government as well. They also plan to distribute the flyers at migrant shelters in the city. "There are people in our shelters who are telling their family members come to New York City and that they'll get housing and that they'll be able to stay with them," NYC Deputy Mayor Anne Williams-Isom said.
Among the flyer's claims: New York City resources have been exhausted and the city"cannot help you obtain a work permit" — which may be stretching facts."We have to be truthful about the challenges that New York City faces in providing adequate services for such a high number of migrant without embellishing anything," NYC City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams said.
Adams said it’s one thing for the city to shift its tone from last year when the mayor greeted asylum seekers with open arms —"We got you. We are gonna provide the services you need" — to this month, when the mayor said of the unending pace of more than 100,000 arrivals:"This issue will destroy New York City."
