"New Jersey Governor Urges Action on NYC Migrant Crisis"

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has stated that the state does not have the resources to accommodate an influx of migrants from New York City, as reportedly considered by the Biden administration. Murphy emphasized the need for significant federal support and resources, which the state cannot afford. The placement of migrants has become a contentious issue, causing friction between Democrats in the region. Local officials in Atlantic County, New Jersey, have strongly opposed the idea of receiving migrants, citing financial constraints. Murphy called for responsible and humane border security, a pathway to status for undocumented individuals, and an overhaul of the country's legal immigration visa process.
