Mayor Eric Adams said Friday he wants to loosen New York City’s sanctuary laws to allow the NYPD to cooperate with ICE even on civil enforcement — only to quickly walk back the remarks.
In a joint appearance alongside President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan, Hizzoner told Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” that he has been pushing the City Council to tweak the law so cops can help the feds crack down on illegal migrants.
“What I asked the City Council to do is change the bill that was already in place and modify it … if you are committing a crime, then we should be able to collaborate with ICE — even on civil enforcement if you have committed a crime,” Adams said.
