Boston City Council Votes 13-0 to Protect Illegal Immigrants from Trump's Deportation Plans
Dec 5, 2024, 11:05 PM
The Boston City Council has voted unanimously 13-0 to reaffirm the city's sanctuary status, aiming to protect illegal immigrants from potential mass deportations promised by President-elect Donald Trump. The resolution upholds the Trust Act, which limits cooperation between local law enforcement and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for immigration enforcement purposes. This decision comes as ICE's Boston office, one of the busiest in the country, makes weekly arrests of illegal immigrants.
