Mayor Colleen Mahr Borough of Fanwood on
January 4, 2024
Statement by Mayor Colleen Mahr

It has come to my attention that over the New Year’s weekend, Fanwood was one of several New Jersey municipalities where buses presumably carrying migrants from Texas arrived so they could be loaded onto trains to New York. The New Jersey Governor’s office, in remarks to the news media, has concluded this is an apparent attempt to bypass New York City’s new executive order restricting such bus arrivals to specific times during weekdays. The New Jersey Transit Police confirmed Fanwood was one of several locations. Other cities where buses arrived were Trenton, Jersey City and Secaucus.
