"Migrants Rerouted to New Jersey to Circumvent New York City Bus Regulations"

New Jersey has become a transit point for migrant buses headed to New York City, circumventing an executive order by NYC Mayor Eric Adams that requires advance notice and regulated drop-off times for migrant arrivals. Secaucus Mayor Michael Gonnelli called this a "loophole" and expressed concerns over the unexpected consequences of the stringent NYC order. Governor Phil Murphy's office is coordinating with federal and local partners on the issue, while mayors from affected New Jersey towns are monitoring the situation. The influx of migrants has prompted calls from various city mayors for more federal assistance and coordination.
