NYC Mayor Eric Adams calls for modifying sanctuary city status [View all]
https://abcnews.go.com/US/nyc-mayor-calls-modifying-sanctuary-city-status/story?id=107604934Adams said on Tuesday that migrants who commit serious crimes should be deported and the city should be able to communicate with federal ICE agents.
"We should not be allowing people who are repeatedly committing crimes to remain here and we cannot collaborate with ICE in the process," the mayor said during a news conference.
It followed comments Monday evening when the mayor said the city needs to modify the sanctuary city law.
"If you commit a felony, a violent act, we should be able to turn you over to ICE and have you deported," Adams said Monday.
