As sanctuary cities across the nation grapple with the consequences of their policies, New York City’s Eric Adams is looking at at least one change to its sanctuary city law for now.
Despite having voiced concerns about his city being unable to accommodate the flood of illegals into his city, for now he’s taking a moderate approach to the crisis, looking to score a PR victory in deporting illegals who commit crimes there (though, as always, illegally crossing the border doesn’t count as a crime to these people).
As Fox reported:
Adams is seeking to amend the city's sanctuary laws to exclude illegal migrants who have committed violent crimes.
Adams has mentioned his desire to tighten the city's regulations on illegal migrants multiple times this week, with his latest at a Tuesday press conference.
"I don’t believe people who are violent in our city and commit repeated crimes should have the privilege of being in our city," Adams said on Tuesday. He added, "You don’t have the right to be in our city and tarnish the overwhelming number who are here following the rules."
Watch below:
Under the Biden administration, an estimated 7.2 million illegal aliens have entered the U.S., a total greater than the population of 36 individual states. If the nation’s cities can’t handle tens of thousands of new illegals - how is the country supposed to accommodate millions on top of what we already have?
