(TheConservativeTimes.org) – Launching a bombshell campaign against the liberal bastion’s dangerous agenda, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has sued New York.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi did not mince words when announcing the lawsuit, declaring, “New York has chosen to prioritize illegal aliens over American citizens. It stops. It stops today.”
In addition to targeting New York state, Bondi included Governor Kathy Hochul and Attorney General Letitia James in the lawsuit for endangering public safety and obstructing federal immigration enforcement.
This bold move signals the Trump administration’s commitment to enforcing the nation’s immigration laws and protecting American communities.
The DOJ’s lawsuit targets New York’s “Green Light Law,” which allows illegal aliens to obtain driver’s licenses and mandates the Department of Motor Vehicles to withhold information necessary for immigration enforcement.
The lawsuit revealed that New York’s law unconstitutionally requires state officials to notify aliens if federal agencies request their information.
Bondi emphasized this provision, stating, “It’s tipping off an illegal alien, and it’s unconstitutional, and that’s why we filed this lawsuit.”
This legal action is part of a broader federal effort to enforce immigration laws and remove migrants charged or convicted of crimes.
The DOJ has already frozen funding for sanctuary jurisdictions and plans to withhold federal funding from organizations supporting illegal aliens.
The message is clear: states that harbor illegals and obstruct federal law enforcement will face consequences.
The federal government recently seized over $80 million from New York’s accounts, intended for migrant housing, sparking tensions between state and federal authorities.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams is set to meet with Border Czar Tom Homan to discuss immigration enforcement and the seized funds, signaling a potential shift in the city’s approach to immigration policies.
While New York officials defend their sanctuary policies, the human cost of these laws cannot be ignored.
During the announcement, Bondi introduced Tammy Nobles, whose daughter was tragically murdered by an illegal MS-13 gang member.
Despite New York officials’ claims that their laws protect communities, the DOJ’s lawsuit paints a different picture.
The Green Light Law is described as an attack on federal immigration laws and authorities, undermining efforts to maintain national security and public safety.
As this legal battle unfolds, the Trump administration is committed to putting Americans first and holding sanctuary jurisdictions accountable for their dangerous policies.
