In a recent development regarding the ongoing border crisis, President Biden has called on Republicans in Congress to provide additional funding to address the escalating situation. Reports indicate that December witnessed a record-breaking surge in border crossings, with over 225,000 migrants encountered by authorities – the highest monthly total since the year 2000, as disclosed by Homeland Security officials.
As part of efforts to deal with migrants arriving in various cities, New York City Mayor Eric Adams issued an order requiring bus companies to submit passenger manifests and information about drop-off times and locations within 32 hours prior to arrival. However, it seems that buses are now utilizing transit points in New Jersey to circumvent these new regulations. Migrants have reportedly been taking trains to Penn Station, the busiest train station in the country, to reach their desired destinations in Manhattan.
