MA: Boston mayor under fire for doubling down on sanctuary city laws

Source: New York Post

“Boston’s Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu is taking heat from local leaders for doubling down on liberal sanctuary city laws, and insisting ‘we stand with immigrants.’ Wu has previously stated that Boston will not cooperate with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations — which she reiterated during her State of the City address Wednesday night. ‘No one tells Boston how to take care of our own, not kings, and not presidents who think they are kings. Boston was born facing down bullies,’ she said in her speech. ‘You belong here,’ she told immigrants. Wu’s speech outraged conservative local leaders who oppose shielding illegal [sic] immigrants from ICE, claiming they put Bostonians at risk. Massachusetts GOP spokesperson Logan Trupiano told Fox News that ‘there is simply no justifiable reason for her to stand in the way of this critical progress.'” (03/22/25)
