Texas Gov.

Greg Abbott has notoriously been sending busloads of migrants to other major cities since April 2022.

.

The mayor of New York has had enough.

17 charter bus companies used by Texas to transport migrants have been sued by Adams, CBS News reports.

.

New York City has and will always do our part to manage this humanitarian crisis, but we cannot bear the cost of reckless political ploys from the state of Texas, alone, NY Mayor Eric Adams, via statement.

These companies have violated state law by not paying the cost of caring for these migrants, NY Mayor Eric Adams, via statement.

Adams is seeking $708 million from the bus companies as reimbursement for city costs to shelter, feed and provide health care to migrants.

Gov.

Abbott's continued use of migrants as political pawns is not only chaotic and inhumane, but makes clear he puts politics over people, NY Mayor Eric Adams, via statement.

Adams is also reportedly seeking the help of regional allies to stop Abbott.

I communicated with the governor of New Jersey last night.

We also spoke with the governor of Connecticut.

We've got to continue to reach out to our colleagues in the region, NY Mayor Eric Adams, via statement.

Adams' breaking point that prompted him to file suit was reportedly when Abbott circumvented an executive order limiting migrant busloads to New York... ... by sending asylum seekers to train stations in New Jersey that then took them to New York.
