NYC Mayor’s Plan to Deport Migrants in Crime Cases: Impact on Immigration and Law
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has expressed openness to modifying the city’s sanctuary policies to allow migrants charged with crimes to be turned over to federal immigration authorities for deportation.
He emphasized that while most migrants are law-abiding and seek work, the city must address the small fraction involved in serious crimes.
This shift comes amidst growing concerns about public safety and the financial strain posed by a large influx of migrants into the city.
