While walking through New York City recently, Frontlines’ Savanah Hernandez noticed a group of illegal immigrants lined up outside a building. She soon learned that many of them were waiting to receive tickets to destinations across the country and beyond.
The tickets, Hernandez discovered, were free, paid for by Mayor Eric Adams’ government.
“I wanna highlight these signs,” Hernandez said, pointing to sheets of paper taped to the wall. “They say ‘Did you know? We can book you a ticket to travel anywhere outside New York City. No need to wait in line, just tell the front door staff you’d like to get a travel ticket’ … in eight different languages.”
The notices stipulate that a valid international passport or US-issued photo ID is required to travel domestically, with only the former being valid for international trips.
Among those who took advantage of the offer was a man from Russia.
“Yes!” he cried with excitement. “They give me ticket for free to Chicago. I fly tomorrow, for free!”
