Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal expressed disappointment that New York City Mayor Eric Adams echoed former President Donald Trump's rhetoric on migrants and immigration, stating that it doesn't reflect the values of New York City.
On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight,” Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal stated that “it’s just unfortunate” that New York City Mayor Eric Adams said some of the same things as 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump about migrants and immigration, Trump’s argument “is a horrible one around migrants, around immigration.” And “that is not who New York is.
After host Alex Wagner referenced Adams’ comments about migrants, Jayapal said, “I think the challenge here is that the whole argument right now that Donald Trump is pushing is a horrible one around migrants, around immigration. And it’s just unfortunate that Eric Adams some of those same things, he said some of those same things and I think New Yorkers didn’t like it. I think that is not who New York is. New York is defined by the contributions of immigrants to the city of New York.
