"New Jersey Grapples with Influx of Migrants Amidst Inter-State Tensions and Transit Challenges"

New Jersey officials, including Governor Phil Murphy, are actively directing migrants arriving from the US border to New York City, refusing to share the burden of the migrant influx that NYC Mayor Eric Adams is struggling to manage. Cops in New Jersey are guiding nearly 1,000 asylum seekers onto Manhattan-bound trains, bypassing NYC's executive order that demands advance notice and limits on where migrant buses can arrive. Local New Jersey officials claim they are unprepared to handle the migrants, while NYC leaders continue to seek federal assistance and cooperation from neighboring areas to address the overwhelming number of migrants, primarily sent from Texas by Governor Greg Abbott.
