NYC’s Sanctuary Law Helps Defeat Crime
Abstract
New York City’s immigration sanctuary laws are under attack. President Trump, and more recently Mayor Adams, claim that the city’s refusal to participate in federal deportations undermines public safety. Lost in the public debate, however, is the reality of how these laws were specifically crafted to help the NYPD fight crime.
