Description

The 1 train service is still in flux after Thursday’s derailment with 2 and 3 trains also impacted. MTA Chair Janno Leiber reminds commuters that derailments are rare, and train operators take precautions. Plus, Mayor Adams's administration is suing 17 bus companies for allegedly bringing migrants from Texas to New York City, seeking over $700 million for emergency care and shelter costs. The lawsuit responds to Texas Governor Greg Abbott's 2022 move to send migrants to Democratic-led sanctuary cities like New York. WNYC’s Sean Carlson sat with New Jersey reporter Elizabeth Kim who has been covering the story.
