“The volunteers— were told by members of the mayor’s team in a Monday night briefing that they cannot help out at the soon-to-launch arrival center, said Power Malu, the founder of Artists Athletes Activists.”

[Chris Sommerfeldt @C_Sommerfeldt]

New: Some volunteers on the frontlines of NYC’s migrant crisis will not be welcome at a 24/7 arrival center for asylum seekers that Mayor Adams plans to announce today.

The volunteers in question have been critical of Adams' handling of the crisis.

Huge shout out to @Nenealamo, @Powermalu, + @IlzeThielmann for their continuous welcoming work! Mad love to @AAActivists & @tlc_nyc!

These migrants, who were released from federal border custody and allowed to seek asylum, are greeted by volunteers and offered services and basic necessities at the Port Authority bus terminal, including food, coffee and winter clothing, before being placed in city shelters.

[Camilo Montoya-Galvez @camiloreports]

Dozens of Venezuelan migrants, most of them families with children, arrived in New York City this morning.

At least 20,000 migrants have arrived in New York since Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and officials in El Paso started busing migrants from the U.S.-Mexico border to Manhattan.

Anyone that tell me D1 is privileged and well resourced is mistaken what the reality is here. Just because you see tall luxury high rises doesn’t mean our families are living large. The fact we have set up community fridges in schools speaks to the real need.

[Naomi Peña 🇵🇷🇩🇴 @NaomiPenaNYC]

In LES we take care of us. Shout out to @Powermalu and @LilahLMejia for not just being out there during the height of COVID but also now when our families in D1 need it most.
