A Texas bus company has agreed to stop bussing illegal migrants from Texas to New York City amid an ongoing lawsuit from Mayor Eric Adams.
Bus company Roadrunner Charters agreed Wednesday to stop transporting migrants, signing a stipulation letter.
“The Defendant Roadrunner Charters Inc. will refrain forthwith from transporting individuals known as migrants from Texas to New York City, and/or from Texas to the vicinity of New York City,” the letter said, in part.
The lawsuit, brought by the New York City Department of Social Services, argued that the 17 companies, including Roadrunner Charters, violated New York state law by not paying for the cost of caring for migrants.
The lawsuit sought $708 million in damages.
The lawsuit cites New York law that requires anyone who brings a “needy person” from out of state for the purposes of making them a public charge to either take them out of the state or support them.
