Mayor Eric Adams exclusively told Eyewitness News that the city will slash aid to migrants and lift previously announced agency budget cuts.
In an exclusive interview with Eyewitness News, Mayor Eric Adams announced Wednesday morning that drastic city budget cuts proposed for the coming fiscal year across all municipal agencies will be canceled and a hiring freeze will be lifted.
"You're not going to see some of those draconian steps that we were going to have to take that will get in the way of the cleanliness and the safety of our city," Adams said. With respect to migrants, the administration is slashing an additional 10% in asylum seeker spending-bringing the total reduction in spending on migrants to 30% -- after a 20% reduction in spending already announced during the Preliminary Budget.
