Mayor Eric Adams is traveling to Florida on Friday to meet with President-elect Donald Trump amid concern the incoming president’s immigration and fiscal policies could have a major impact on New Yorkers.

The meeting also comes as Trump has openly entertained pardoning Adams as he faces federal corruption charges.

In a statement late Thursday, Fabien Levy, Adams’ spokesman, said the mayor has “made quite clear his willingness to work with President-elect Trump” and that they plan to discuss “New Yorkers’ priorities” during their sit-down.

Adams met privately last month with Tom Homan, Trump’s incoming “border czar,” who has vowed to carry out mass deportations of undocumented immigrants across the country. After that meeting, Adams said he shares Homan’s “goal” to expel immigrants who commit serious crimes from the country.

The mayor’s Friday jaunt also comes as New York is bracing for Trump’s incoming administration to potentially strip the city of federal funds, as he has threatened to do should it not cooperate in his planned immigration crackdown.
