Upstate NY counties declare emergencies over migrant influx

TL;DR Summary
Sullivan County officials criticized New York City for busing migrants to a local motel with a checkered past, where a toddler died earlier this month. The move has opened up a new front in an escalating battle between the city and upstate counties over the placement of migrants. More than 40,000 migrants are under the care of New York City out of 60,000 total who have arrived since last summer. County officials said they got "less than 24-hour notice" that the migrants were coming to Liberty.
