<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/new-york-city" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York City</a> Mayor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/eric-adams" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Eric Adams</a> suggested on Tuesday that it has been a while since he spoke with President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> despite the Big Apple struggling to grapple with a growing influx of migrants.</p>
<p>Adams, a Democrat, told a <a href="https://abc7ny.com/eric-adams-new-york-city-mayor-eyewitness-news-mornings-at-10-migrants/13772316/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">local ABC affiliate</a> that he has not communicated with Biden &#8220;since earlier this year.&#8221; He did not indicate a specific time, but Adams <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2023/08/10/eric-adams-joe-biden-migrant-crisis-00110634" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told CNN</a> last month that he had not spoken to Biden since 2022.</p>
<p>During the new interview, the mayor added that he did speak with White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zients on Monday and shared his &#8220;thoughts and ideas and the economic impact&#8221; of the migrant situation.</p>
<p>Adams declared last week that the cost of dealing with more than <a href="https://www.nyc.gov/office-of-the-mayor/news/600-23/mayor-adams-new-york-city-has-cared-more-100-000-asylum-seekers-since-last-spring" target="_blank" rel="noopener">110,000 asylum seekers</a> would <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nyc-mayor-adams-on-illegal-aliens-pouring-in-the-city-we-knew-were-about-to-lose" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;destroy&#8221;</a> New York City and then announced &#8220;steps&#8221; to stabilize his city&#8217;s finances — including <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nyc-mayor-announces-billions-in-budget-cuts-and-slashes-to-nypd-to-deal-with-migrant-crisis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">budget cuts</a> that could affect public schools, police, firefighters, and sanitation.</p>
<p>&#8220;Today, with approximately 10,000 asylum seekers still arriving each month, the city estimates this mounting crisis will cost taxpayers $12 billion over three fiscal years — an amount that will continue to grow without federal and state intervention and support,&#8221; Adams said in remarks over the weekend.</p>
<p>New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul <a href="https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/politics/2023/08/30/hochul-to-meet-with-white-house-to-discuss-migrant-influx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told Spectrum News</a> late last month that the White House has committed to &#8220;surge resources&#8221; and to send Homeland Security Department officials to Manhattan to help contend with the migrants.</p>
<p>The White House recently <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/08/us/politics/migrant-work-permits.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the Biden administration has made a request to Congress for $600 million in additional funds for the Shelter and Services Program to help localities take care of migrants, which could give a boost to the roughly $140 million in federal funding already provided to New York City, and it seeks $800 million for next year, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/08/us/politics/migrant-work-permits.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to The New York Times</a>.</p>

<p>Federal officials have also <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/08/us/politics/migrant-work-permits.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly sent out messages</a> to migrants urging eligible individuals to apply for work permits.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are working very closely with the city of New York,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/department-of-homeland-security" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Homeland Security</a> Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/alejandro-mayorkas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alejandro Mayorkas</a> said in an interview with CNN on Monday. &#8220;We sent an assessment team here that devised approximately 25 recommendations. We are executing on those recommendations. We will address this together.&#8221;</p>
<p>Still, some high-profile figures in New York politics say the Biden administration has not done enough. Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg penned a <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/10/opinion/michael-bloomberg-nyc-immigration-crisis.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Times guest essay</a> warning that Democrats will suffer at the ballot box in 2024 if more is not done to address the migrant crisis.</p>
<p>Adams met with Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday as she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-gets-hammered-for-claiming-he-was-at-ground-zero-the-day-after-9-11" target="_blank" rel="noopener">visited</a> New York City to mark the 22nd anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, but the mayor said they only engaged in &#8220;small talk&#8221; at the memorial site, <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/09/11/mayor-adams-grimace-as-veep-harris-chats-with-gov-says-it-all-about-tensions-over-migrants/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">per the New York Post</a>.</p>
