Texas Buses Defy Mayor’s Orders, Continue Transporting Migrants to New York via New Jersey
Buses from Texas are finding ways to carry migrants to New York against Mayor Adams’ limitations.
According to the most recent reports, these buses are dropping off migrants in New Jersey cities, violating Mayor Adams’ limitations meant to restore order to the migrant movement.
Bypassing Executive Orders: Texas Buses Navigate Around Mayor Adams’ Rules
Despite Mayor Adams’ Executive Order demanding a 32-hour notice and limiting arrival hours to a single spot on weekdays, buses appear to be breaking the restrictions.
Instead of obeying, bus operators are taking up migrants at various transit stations in New Jersey and transporting them to New York by train.
A “Loophole” in Action: Challenges Faced by New Jersey Officials
The Mayor of Secaucus has referred to this practice as a “loophole” because busses violate Mayor Adams’ laws and arrive unannounced.
According to reports, these unexpected arrivals make it difficult for New York City officials to satisfy the urgent requirements of passengers leaving from buses at various hours of the day and night.

Efforts to Address the Issue: New Jersey Takes Action
New Jersey Governor Murphy has taken steps to address the situation, requesting similar restrictions to those implemented by Mayor Adams.
Governor Murphy has sought a 32-hour notice of arrival from bus companies and additional information about passengers, although there is currently no evidence of compliance from these companies.
Despite these efforts, buses continue to arrive unannounced, leaving officials and communities grappling with the ongoing challenge.
The resolution to this complex issue remains uncertain, and the impact on both New Jersey and New York persists.
