City Comptroller Brad Lander made the claim in an audit of migrant-related contracts released on Tuesday, identifying 340 asylum-seeker contracts representing an estimated contract value of $5.7 billion.

Most of those contracts were procured on an emergency basis, allowing the city to waive the usual competitive bidding requirements, according to the audit.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams gets handed a sack of lemons, he manages to make highly corrosive sulfuric acid out of it.

Then he expects EVERYBODY to take a drink of it.

New York City is turning into Bangladesh. Poor, corrupt, and vastly overpopulated, with little discernable order or prospects for the future.

I heard the no-bid contracts were to black-owned firms run by buddies of his. Adams is as corrupt as his hero Al Not-so-Sharpton.

Adams will continue, of course, to ask for taxpayer bailouts.
