The New York Supreme Court has denied Mayor Eric Adams’s request for a preliminary injunction against Texas busing illegal immigrants to New York City.

Adams filed the lawsuit against 17 charter bus companies in January in a bid to stop the bus companies from busing migrants, many of whom are undocumented, from communities in Texas to New York. Adams also cited Social Services Law 149, which stipulates that anyone “who knowingly brings, or causes to be brought, a needy person from out of state into this state for the purpose of making him a public charge” has an obligation “to convey such person out of state or support him at his own expense.”

However, in her nine-page July 29 ruling, Judge Mary V. Rosado ruled that the lawsuit was “unconstitutional.” Rosado said the issue was similar to a 1941 Supreme Court case, Edwards v. California, wherein the Supreme Court found that an “essentially identical” law in California was unconstitutional for violating the Interstate Commerce Clause.

Citing the ruling, Rosado said the Court “finds that it cannot grant the request for injunctive relief as the merits of [the] claim are dubious at best given myriad constitutional concerns.”

The New York Supreme Court’s ruling is a setback for the Adams administration, whose legal moves had only succeeded in getting one bus company, Roadrunner Charters Inc., to agree to stop transporting illegal migrants to the city until the court finalizes its decision.

In a post on X, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said the ruling can be considered a win. “Until the Biden-Harris Administration secures the border, Texas will continue to send migrants to sanctuary cities,” he added. (Related: New study predicts WHITES will become MINORITY in the United States by 2050.)

Thousands of migrants are straining NY social services and shelter space

Adams is worried that busing thousands of migrants to New York will continue to strain social services and the amount of available shelter space past the limit, costing more than $700 million.

Aside from pursuing the busing lawsuit, Adams has tried to enforce a 60-day limit on shelter space for asylum seekers in the city.

In the past two years alone, reports have revealed that at least 205,000 migrants have arrived in New York, straining the city’s social services and forcing the Adams administration to set up more than 200 emergency shelter sites.

Meanwhile, the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), which filed an amicus brief in the case, insisted that people have a right to come to New York regardless of their immigration status or whether they are self-sufficient and that the injunction Adams sought was unconstitutional.

In a statement, Beth Haroules, a senior staff attorney at the NYCLU, said the New York Supreme Court has “rightly rejected the city’s cruel attempt to limit newly arrived immigrants from traveling to and making a home here in New York City.” Haroules added that everyone has “the right to travel and reside anywhere within the United States – including Texas and New York.”
