Amid a three-day jaunt to Israel this week, Mayor Eric Adams on Tuesday said the United States should learn from the Jewish state as to how it has integrated migrants into its society by allowing them to legally work.
The mayor has argued for months that expediting migrant work permits in the U.S. would allow newcomers to provide for themselves and move out of overburdened city shelters. The White House, however, has failed to take action despite calls from Adams and his top aides.
