Mayor of Boston Michelle Wu will take questions about Sanctuary City policy From the congress on Wednesday.
Since the election victory of President Donald Trump doubled About the status of Sanctuary City in Boston, say that police and city officials will not help the federal authorities with deportations.
“Boston continues to experience crime, drug activity and human trafficking as a result of (migrants) facilities,” Jon Fetherston, a former director of Migrants of Massachusetts, told Fox News Digital. “While Mayor Wu enjoys strong support from her base, largely influenced by Senator Elizabeth Warren … Residents and surrounding communities are frustrated and embarrassed by its leadership.”
Amy Carnevale, chairman of the Republican Party of the State, Massgop, told Fox News Digital that she expects Wu to talk about “how Boston is a safer city than” New York City, Denver and Chicago, who will also be called up under a congress microscope on Wednesday to test.

“But that’s all a family member. I mean, one murder, one rape, one violent crime is one too many,” said Carnevale. “We have committed many violent crimes in Boston by … illegal aliens. And the fact that she has explained Boston to be a Sanctuary City Is really an invitation for further criminal aliens who enter the city, which endangers the safety of residents. “
According to the Boston Trust ACT, changed in 2014 and changed in 2019, the Boston police can “collaborate with ICE-HSI” on certain crimes, including “Human trafficking, exploitation of childrenDrug and arms trade and cyber crime. “
However, the law also states that the Boston police will not ask people about the status of immigration, share information with immigration and customs enforcement, making arrests based on ice cream levers or convey people in ice service.

“I keep saying that Boston is following the laws. We continue to do what we do because we are fully in accordance with the laws, who say that municipal officials and municipal police departments have authority on maintaining crimes at the local level to keep everyone safe in their community,” Wu recently told WBUR. “Immigration falls under the federal government and federal officials. It is not the authority of city officials to be involved in doing the work of the federal government, and it is also not the task of the federal government for what should be done at the local level.”
In the meantime, the son of New England Patriots -owner Robert Kraft, Josh Kraft, who runs in November to replace Wu, said in a statement of 26 February that he supports “violent criminals from our community where they come from”.
Kraft further expressed his support for the Trust Act and condemned Trump’s plans to curb illegal immigration and to deport criminal migrants.
“It is outrageous to consider ICE -Officers who rob schools or worship places to complete immigrants without papers that are not involved in criminal activities,” said Kraft, referring to a recent Homeland Security (DHS) guideline that prevents the guidelines of the previous Bides Administration in “Sensitive”.

“This action enables the brave men and women in CBP and IJs to enforce our immigration laws and catch criminal aliens – including murderers and rapists – who have illegally entered our country. Criminals will no longer be able to hide in the American schools and churches to prevent an arrest statement. “The Trump government will not bind the hands of our brave law enforcement and trusts to use common sense instead.”

Massgop has submitted a record request to Maura Healey’s government Office last year “asked for details of criminal reports from migrant shelter,” said Carnevale.
“We received those results just before Christmas, with details about 1,000 violent criminal incidents … which have happened in the last three years in migrant shelter, which are supposed to be safe ports for people looking for shelter in Massachusetts,” the chair explained.
“Those reports have been severely edited, so we don’t know how many violent incidents took place in the city of Boston, and we would like to have those figures and know what mayor Wu … does to get a grip on violent criminal incidents.”

Fetherston described migrant shelters as ‘chaos’.
“Sex crimes, rapes of young girls, eBT -card fraud, fungus, bugs, rats and no available housing for migrants to enter,” he explained. “… The migrant shelter has influenced school, police and fire budgets. Teachers are frustrated and do not feel supported. Public safety officers are burned out, because most departments are called to the hiding places every day.”

Massgop revealed its findings last year that the Massachusetts government had spent more than $ 1 billion in confidentiality “to migrant homes”, leaving the inhabitants of Massachusetts in the dark, “said Carnevale at that time in a statement.” They have critical information about 600 incidents regarding 600 incidents with the police, fire brigade and EMT. The administration blocks journalists at every turn and has blocked the flow of information to the public. “
This week alone, WU expected $ 650,000 in preparations for her trip to the congress, according to The Boston Herald. FOX News Digital reached for WU’s office for comment.
The organizer of an online campaign against WU called Bostonians against Mayor Wu, who has more than 32,000 followers on X, told Fox News Digital on condition of anonymity that “Bostonians are fed up” with their mayor.

“As you would expect, Boston is very awake, and there are still many people who support this policy. But the tide turns fast,” said the organizer, who spoke anonymously for fear of retaliation. “The governors of Texas and Florida who have set illegal immigrants to Sanctuary cities have opened many eyes. Suddenly it is not only an abstract problem. It is really, it is expensive and it influences daily life.”

The organizer added that “Boston is not safer” because of Sanctuary’s city policy.
“Day after day you see Boston Ice Reporting arrests of illegal alien child predators who have been put on the street because of the Sanctuary policy of WU. The city refuses to work with ice cream, which means that dangerous criminals remain in our communities instead of being deported,” the organizer said.
