While on a visit to the New York state Capitol, President Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan warned migrant "sanctuary" jurisdictions to "get out of the way" or they will "get exactly what they don’t want, more ICE agents in your community."
New York state law restricts local and state law enforcement agencies from complying with ICE detainers or holding illegal immigrants solely based on their immigration status. Another policy, known as the "Green Light Law," allows illegal immigrants to obtain drivers' licenses valid in the state of New York.
Surrounded by Republican state lawmakers in the state Capitol building, Homan renewed his promise to deport "the worst first" and decried non-cooperation policies such as New York’s, saying that they pose a threat to federal agents and communities. He urged local and state law enforcement authorities to "let us in the jails" voluntarily but vowed that sanctuary policies would not stand in the way of the Trump administration’s deportation plans.
"This is an attack on immigration enforcement, that’s plain what it is," he said.
Homan said the result of not complying with immigration authorities would be more ICE agents in the community rather than less.
"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. "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."
