This morning, New York City Mayor Eric Adams is calling for major changes to the city's sanctuary policies. He publicly endorsed a shift that could send undocumented immigrants who were accused of a crime into the hands of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers.
Mayor Adams has been vocal about the migrant influx into New York City, referring to it as a crisis for over a year. The city currently shelters around 65,000 migrants, with concerns rising over public safety and immigration issues. Recent incidents, such as a high-profile shooting in Times Square involving a 15-year-old Venezuelan migrant, have fueled the debate.
