NYC lawmakers of both parties urge Trump admin to step in, tackle sanctuary laws
Story by Craig McCarthy • 14h

A bipartisan group of City Council members is urging Trump’s Department of Justice to step in to overrule the Big Apple’s sanctuary city laws, The Post has learned.

The council’s Common Sense Caucus penned a letter to US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday asking to take legal action against New York City for its policies on illegal immigrants that limit cooperation between local law enforcement and the federal government.
 
“We understand the Department of Justice (DOJ), under your direction, is already suing the state of New York for violating federal statutes by impeding communication between state and federal authorities on immigration enforcement,” the caucus wrote in the letter obtained by The Post.

“We ask the DOJ to expand this legal action to include New York City’s so-called ‘sanctuary city laws,’ which shield criminal aliens from federal immigration authorities, place the public at risk and severely undermine efforts by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and our own law enforcement agencies to coordinate on issues of national security.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

NY "conservatives" would be liberals in most states, so you know common sense didn't suddenly kick in for liberals and them.  I wonder what the impetus is for this, some kind of Trump trap? :pondering:
