Border Czar Threatens to Increase Federal Immigration Agents in New York Over Sanctuary Policies
Briefly

In a recent statement, Tom Homan, a key figure in immigration enforcement, announced potential increases in ICE agents in New York if the state does not amend its sanctuary laws. He emphasized that resistance would lead to more federal arrests. Additionally, a subpoena has been sent to a hotel that houses undocumented immigrants, seeking detailed resident information and potentially implicating local officials in the shelter program. Homan also commended Mayor Eric Adams for cooperating with federal actions, amid the launch of a DHS app aimed at self-deporting undocumented immigrants.
Homan criticized New York City's sanctuary laws, stating ‘You're not gonna stop us, New York State... If you don’t, get out of the way.’
The subpoena issued to a Manhattan hotel housing undocumented immigrants demands a list of current residents and related identifying information, hinting at broader investigations into local officials.
Homan praised NYC Mayor Eric Adams for his cooperation with federal immigration enforcement on deportations and announced a meeting to discuss their partnership.
The Department of Homeland Security launched a new app allowing undocumented immigrants to indicate they are self-deporting, showing a shift in compliance dynamics.
