NYC Mayor Suspends Right-to-Shelter Rules Amid Migrant Surge

NYC Mayor Eric Adams has signed an executive order suspending portions of the city's right-to-shelter law ahead of an expected surge in migrants. The move comes as the federal border policy Title 42 is set to expire on Friday, which is expected to accelerate the clip of migrant arrivals. The provisions being suspended include a rule requiring the city to secure shelter beds for families with children by a certain time, a prohibition on placing families with children in congregate settings, and a rule regarding unlawful evictions. The order takes effect immediately and stays in effect for five days, though Adams can renew it.
