According to a Newsmax report, New York City Governor Eric Adams is offering illegal migrants a free flight to anywhere in the country as NYC shelters hit capacity.
From Newsmax:
Adams’ office confirmed this week that it has set up a re-ticketing center in the East Village, where migrants hoping to find vacant beds are instead offered flights to anywhere in the world on the city’s dime. City Hall’s makeshift travel agency began just last weekend, it said.
The move comes amid ongoing frustration with the Biden administration for not doing more to subsidize and help offset the immigration crisis.

The cost of a flight — even international — is less than the daily $394 per-migrant cost that New York City is now facing since becoming a sanctuary city and a top destination to which Abbott sends migrants. Adams said city estimates put the price tag at $4.7 billion this year alone for more than 100,000 asylum seekers.
“With no sign of a decompression strategy in the near future, we have established a re-ticketing center for migrants,” City Hall spokesperson Kayla Mamelak said Tuesday. “Here, the city will redouble efforts to purchase tickets for migrants to help them take the next steps in their journeys.”
