I am pleased to see that Roadrunner – one of the bus companies we sued for taking part in Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's scheme to transport tens of thousands of migrants to our city in an attempt to overwhelm our shelter system and shift costs to New York City – has agreed to halt the bussing of migrants into and around New York City while the lawsuit proceeds.
