NextImg:City Hall bought $50K worth of plane tickets to ship migrants from NYC to Texas, Florida: report

Mayor Eric Adams administration purchased plane tickets to send migrants back to Florida and Texas — the very states he has focused his ire on for shipping the asylum seekers here, records show.

The documents — obtained by Politico’s New York bureau — show that City Hall shelled out roughly $50,000 between April 2022 and April 2023 to resettle 114 of the recent arrivals outside of the five boroughs, including some who went back to South America and China.

The two most common destinations for those resettlements were the Sunshine and Lone Star states, which are run by Republican governors who have been engaged in a war of words with City Hall and Democrats in Washington over how best to manage the crisis along the southern border.

Roughly a quarter of those resettled — 28 — opted for Florida; while another 14 picked Texas, according to Politico’s analysis. Several more opted to return back to South America, with four picking Colombia and two heading to Peru.

One person opted for China, records show.
