NEW YORK (PIX11) — Even with violence spilling onto the streets of New York stemming from some migrants who have claimed asylum, there is little hope for a border security deal.
The bipartisan comprise that included some additional restrictions at the border and some changes to the asylum process– failed to make it out of the Senate and was frowned upon by Republicans in the House anyway.

“We need to manage the border correctly so that we don’t impact public safety and help these cities being impacted,” Mayor Eric Adams said in a pre-taped interview for PIX on Politics to air this Sunday morning.
Adams once again called out both parties in Congress and the White House for not coming together on the immigration issue. The failure led Governor Kathy Hochul to point the finger of blame at the 10 Republicans representing New York in Congress.
“Walk down to speaker Johnson’s office and say our state need help right now,” Hochul said Friday.
