ATMORE, Ala. — When Derrick Dearman entered Alabama’s execution chamber Thursday evening, he was the fifth man the state put to death this year.

Dearman went to the home and was told he could not stay the night. Dearman wrestled a pistol away from Justin Reed as Reed tried to defend himself and Chelsea Reed.

For months, as New York City has struggled to find shelter for more than 50,000 migrants, Mayor Eric Adams has sought to rally residents to push Washington for more help. “I need you to raise your voice on the federal level,” Mr. Adams said at a town hall-style event in Manhattan Thursday night. “I need you to say, as New Yorkers, ‘We deserve to be treated better.’”New Yorkers have been raising their voices. It seems as if every place city officials choose to house migrants draws a new backlash. One of the latest skirmishes is being fought on Randall’s Island, off the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where a tent complex big enough to sleep 2,000 men is being built atop four soccer fields, just as the fall season prepares to begin.

Now, the daily stream of migrants feeding the crisis has doubled in size in recent weeks, city officials say. With no clear solutions at hand, the city turned to shelter some migrants in public school gyms starting last week. That plan, like many others before it, was almost immediately met with outrage — not only from activists and human right groups, but also from public school parents and the ranks of everyday New Yorkers. On Wednesday, the city began to distance itself from that proposal, too. More than 67,000 migrants have arrived in New York City since the crisis began.

An emergency response dormitory for migrants on Randall’s Island in New York City in October. Mayor Eric Adams said shelters are at maximum capacity. Jared Polis said he would halt busing migrants from Denver to New York City and Chicago after the mayors of those cities argued that their shelters were already overrun. New York Mayor Eric Adams and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot in a letter on Saturday to Mr. Polis argued that “overburdening other cities” isn’t the solution to the burden of the wave of asylum seekers. Mr. Polis said in a statement Saturday that no more buses were scheduled to Chicago and a final charter to New York was slated to be completed Sunday.

Migrants who have been bused to New York City in the thousands are finding themselves in a fruitless hunt for work while they try to build lives in the United States.
