NYC Mayor Eric Adams During Mexico Visit: ‘Mi Casa Es Su Casa’ But ‘There’s No More Room’ in New York

New York City Mayor Eric Adams visited Mexico's Puebla state on Thursday as part of his latest Latin American trip, where state Gov. Sergio Salomón Céspedes called him "Mayor of Puebla York."

“We are neighbors. We are familia. Mi casa es su casa. Your struggles are my struggles,” Adams said, as reported by the Associated Press.

“There is no more room in New York. Our hearts are endless, but our resources are not,” he continued. “We don’t want to put people in congregate shelters. We don’t want people to think they will be employed.”

According to the mayor, around 800,000 immigrants from the state of Puebla live in New York City.

The visit is a part of his recent effort to learn more about the asylum seekers in the city — over 120,000 in the last year, as New York faces an immigration crisis with straining resources.

He is also traveling to Quito, Ecuador and Bogota, Columbia, before ending his trip at the Darien Gap, where many asylum seekers pass through as they come to the U.S.
