Mayor Adams walks back comment on Constitution not applying to undocumented immigrants

Mayor Eric Adams is walking back recent comments he made about due process not applying to undocumented immigrants. 

At his news conference earlier in the week, Adams incorrectly claimed  "the Constitution is for Americans" when probed on his position regarding due process rights for migrants.  

Speaking to WNYC's Michael Hill Friday morning, Adams corrected that statement.  "Our constitution is for all of us," he said, adding when pressed, "Even for undocumented immigrants."

Mayor Adams and First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer joined WNYC's Morning Edition to talk about that, the new  housing plan approved by the City Council, and his hopes to pass  an income tax cut that would require state lawmaker approval.
