US President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan on Wednesday warned migrant "sanctuary" jurisdictions, urging them to "get out of the way" or face an increased presence of "exactly what they don’t want, more ICE agents in the community."
While visiting the New York state Capitol, Homan criticised Gov. Kathy Hochul and state Democrats for backing sanctuary city policies, cautioning, "Sanctuary cities are going to get exactly what they don’t want—more agents in the community."
"You’re not going to stop us, New York state, you’ve got to change the sanctuary status. If you don’t, get out of the way, we’re going to do our job," he said, Fox News reported.
"We’ll double the man-force if we have to. Rather than one officer arresting a bad guy, now I have to send a whole team," he added.
