New York Announces New Concealed Carry Gun Laws
NEW YORK (77WABC) — New York City is eyeing legal action to stop Texas governor Greg Abbott from sending more buses full of asylum seekers to the city.
That comes from mayor Eric Adams who appeared on CBS 2 over the weekend.
“Our legal team is looking at legal challenges we could do with Texas,” Adams said. “We believe there are some options we have, because when you involuntarily place someone on a bus, we believe that actually skates the law … We’re not leaving any stones unturned to make sure that New Yorkers are [not] being treated in an unfair way.”
This comes as at least six more buses from Texas arrived in the city Sunday morning. Adams also floated the idea of using cruise ships to house migrants who have been entering city homeless shelters by the thousands.
At least 11,000 migrants have entered the city’s homeless shelters since May. The mayor said that the city has opened 23 emergency shelters and expects to open 38 more.
