NYC Mayor Adams Explores Executive Order to Bypass Sanctuary City Laws for Deportations
Dec 9, 2024, 02:43 AM
New York City Mayor Eric Adams is actively exploring options, including the potential use of an executive order, to bypass the city's sanctuary city designation and facilitate cooperation with President Donald Trump's administration on immigration enforcement. Adams has expressed concerns over rising crime rates and has indicated a willingness to work with Trump's top border official, Tom Homan, to deport individuals committing crimes in the city. He has publicly called for amendments to the sanctuary city laws to allow for more cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, and has suggested reopening the ICE office at Rikers Island to streamline the process. This move comes amidst discussions with the Trump administration on finding common ground on public safety issues related to illegal immigration.
