NEWARK, N.J. – Gov. Phil Murphy on Saturday strongly criticized the U.S. Department of Justice’s new lawsuit targeting four New Jersey cities over their sanctuary policies, calling the legal challenge an overreach that misrepresents the state’s approach to public safety and immigration enforcement.

The federal lawsuit, filed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, names Newark, Jersey City, Paterson, and Hoboken, along with their mayors, city councils, and police departments. It accuses them of obstructing federal immigration operations through policies that limit cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

“These efforts to shield illegal aliens within the Garden State are unlawful,” the complaint states, arguing the cities’ ordinances and executive orders violate the U.S. Constitution’s Supremacy Clause by interfering with federal law.

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

Jooysy probably doesn't have enough money left to fight the feds after providing for all the illegals during the Biden years. :pondering:
