James Comer Probes Sanctuary City Policies in Boston, Chicago, Denver, New York; Mayors to Testify February 11
Jan 27, 2025, 10:32 PM
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has initiated an investigation into the impact of sanctuary city policies on public safety and federal immigration law enforcement. Comer, the Republican chair, has called upon the mayors of four major U.S. cities—Boston's Michelle Wu, Chicago's Brandon Johnson, Denver's Mike Johnston, and New York City's Eric Adams—to testify at a hearing scheduled for February 11, 2025. The investigation focuses on these cities' refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement, which Comer argues hinders the removal of dangerous criminals from American communities. The mayors have been requested to provide documents and communications related to their cities' sanctuary policies by February 4, 2025.
