"NYC Initiates Evictions of Migrant Families from Shelters as Time Limits Expire"

New York City has started evicting migrant families from homeless shelters after they reached a 60-day time limit, prompting criticism and concerns about the well-being of the families, particularly the children. The city's mayor defended the decision, citing the overwhelming number of new arrivals and the need to free up beds for more stable housing. Critics argue that the evictions are unnecessarily disruptive and are calling for the suspension of the time limits. The reshuffling of families comes as part of the city's efforts to encourage migrants to leave the shelter system permanently, amid ongoing challenges related to the influx of migrants into the city.
