DOJ sues New York City over 'sanctuary' immigration policies
NEW YORK CITY, JUL 24 – The DOJ alleges New York City’s sanctuary policies obstruct federal immigration enforcement and threaten public safety, citing a recent shooting involving an undocumented migrant.
- On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Justice initiated legal action against New York City, including Mayor Eric Adams and various other city officials, challenging the city's sanctuary immigration policies.
- The lawsuit targets sanctuary city policies enacted in New York City in 2014 during Mayor de Blasio's administration that prohibit the use of municipal resources and police cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
- The suit alleges these policies are unconstitutional, endanger ICE officers, and have allowed criminals to commit violent acts, citing a recent shooting of an off-duty Border Patrol officer.
- New York City's mayor defends the essence of the local laws while urging the City Council to reexamine them, saying no New Yorker should fear dialing 911 or sending children to school.
- The lawsuit may intensify national debates over sanctuary cities as the administration aims to overhaul local immigration policies amid promises of a major deportation operation.
