Migrants seek refuge in Colonie amidst shocking conditions.

More than 20 asylum-seekers driven from New York City arrived at the SureStay Plus by Best Western Hotel on Wolf Road in Colonie, New York, early Sunday morning. The town supervisor alleged that New York City Mayor Eric Adams failed to notify the Albany County executive’s office of the plan, a violation of a county executive order issued Tuesday. The town was not equipped to service “an influx of persons of unknown health, dietary, and behavioral histories.” Albany County Executive Dan McCoy's May 23 executive order required that the county be notified to coordinate housing for migrants and asylum-seekers being transported here, and that only the county social services commissioner could issue licenses to hotels, motels or other dwellings to house groups of people.
