Tom Homan, the incoming border czar, intends to meet with Eric Adams, the Democratic mayor of New York City, as the city grapples with a surging migrant population that has overwhelmed city services and contributed to a rise in crime.

Homan stated on "America's Newsroom" that he is open to meeting with anyone to enhance community safety, including the individual in question, as he was contacted by the Adams administration on Monday.

"Let's work together to prioritize public safety threats from the beginning. It will keep your community and my officers safe."

Homan hasn't responded to the offer yet, but he intends to disclose the date of the meeting soon.

Some cities and states have publicly opposed Homan's promise to enhance border security and ensure public safety throughout the country.

On Sunday, California Sen. Alex Padilla, a Democrat, stated on "Face the Nation" that his state will not use state and local resources to perform the federal government's responsibilities.

Padilla stated, "The California way is to embrace our diversity, which has contributed to the success of our communities and economy, and we will protect families from the threats of the Trump administration."

On Monday, Homan stated that the incoming Trump administration would not require local law enforcement to act as immigration officers.

"We request your assistance in taking custody of an illegal alien who is currently being held in a publicly funded jail cell, as he poses a public safety threat. The California Sheriffs Association fully supports our efforts, and law enforcement is willing to work with us. We do not seek to become immigration officers; rather, we ask for your help in managing the situation in the jails."

Trump's proposed mass deportation efforts have been opposed by Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston, and other Democrats.

In New York City, Mayor Adams previously cautioned about the consequences of mass illegal immigration, as hotels are at full capacity and law enforcement grapples with migrant offenses.
