Perspective from an immigration judge: The surge in migrants
By Eric Feldman


According to the Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, which compiles federal immigration data, from March 1 through May 31, 2023, 38,765 migrants have arrived in the city — the most in the country by more than two times. The number of asylum cases pending in New York is only growing. There are 115,367 pending cases throughout New York state — nearly all in New York City, according to TRAC. That’s up about 4,000 cases from October 2021 to September 2022. A decade ago, that number was 30,534.
