Listen "The latest on the city’s influx of arriving migrants"
Episode Synopsis
Last week, President Joe Biden and his administration extended a federal policy for Venezuelan migrants in the United States, allowing for wider permissions like legal work permits. What does that mean for the thousands of migrants in the city, of which 40% are Venezuelan? And where does Mayor Eric Adams stand on the issue after saying the migrant situation would “destroy” the city? And how do New Yorkers feel living in a place long known for accepting immigrants? NY1 anchor Pat Kiernan speaks with political reporter Kelly Mena about all this and more.
