New York City Mayor Eric Adams had said the president “failed” the city by mishandling the asylum-seeker crisis.
Mayor Eric Adams is among several lawmakers who were initially named to the president’s National Advisory Board in March but no longer appear on a roster of 50 prominent Democrats released by the campaign Wednesday. | Hans Pennink/AP PhotoNEW YORK — President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign has dropped New York City Mayor Eric Adams as a national surrogate following his public criticism of the White House’s approach to the migrant crisis.
The mayor using his bully pulpit to push for more federal resources always carried the risk of alienating Biden world. With tens of thousands of migrants already awaiting the expiration of Title 42 at the southern border, immigration is expected to be a key Republican attack line during next year’s campaign. Having a Democratic mayor in a solid blue state — and a campaign surrogate no less — echo attacks from the right was bound to sow discontent in Washington.
He added the Biden campaign likely dropped Adams because he was critical of the White House’s response to the migrant crisis. “That’s almost certainly what happened,” the aide said. He noted Adams “made somewhere between in-artful to stupid comments that were kind of out of bounds.” “As the mayor has previously stated, he stands ready to help the president with reelection however he can,” the spokesperson, Fabien Levy, said in a statement.
