NEW YORK CITY - President Biden announced on Tuesday a sweeping executive order that will essentially shut down the border after a daily threshold is met. After more than a year of increased immigration-related turmoil in New York City, experts believe the tactic will be able to reduce the influx to one of the territories most affected by this trend.
Since the migrant crisis began in the spring of 2022, more than 200,000 asylum seekers have arrived to New York City's intake immigration system, and more than 65,000 are still under the city's care, according to ABC News.
