   MassGOP chair: Mayor Wu's sanctuary city policies 'jeopardizing the safety   
   of residents'   
      
   Amy Carnevale, chair of the state's Republican Party, told Fox News   
   Digital that she expects Michelle Wu to talk about "how Boston is a safer   
   city" than New York City, Denver and Chicago during her Wednesday   
   testimony before Congress.   
      
   Boston Mayor Michelle Wu will take questions regarding sanctuary city   
   policies from Congress on Wednesday.   
      
   Since President Donald Trump’s 2024 electoral victory, Wu has doubled down   
   on Boston’s sanctuary city status, saying police and city officials will   
   not assist federal authorities with deportations.   
      
   "Boston continues to experience crime, drug activity, and human   
   trafficking stemming from [migrant] facilities," Jon Fetherston, a former   
   Massachusetts migrant shelter director, told Fox News Digital. "While   
   Mayor Wu enjoys strong backing from her base, largely influenced by Sen.   
   Elizabeth Warren … residents and surrounding communities are frustrated   
   and embarrassed by her leadership."   
      
   Amy Carnevale, chair of the state's Republican Party, MassGOP, told Fox   
   News Digital that she expects Wu to talk about "how Boston is a safer city   
   than" New York City, Denver and Chicago, which will also be under a   
   congressional microscope Wednesday as leaders from all four cities are   
   called to testify.

   "But that's all relative. I mean, one murder, one rape, one violent crime   
   is one too many," Carnevale said. "We do have many violent crimes   
   committed in Boston by … illegal aliens. And the fact that she has   
   declared Boston to be a sanctuary city is really an invitation to further   
   criminal aliens coming into the city, jeopardizing the safety of   
   residents."   
      
   Under the Boston Trust Act, enacted in 2014 and amended in 2019, the   
   Boston Police Department may "collaborate with ICE-HSI" on certain crimes,   
   including "human trafficking, child exploitation, drug and weapons   
   trafficking, and cybercrimes."   
      
   The act also states, however, that Boston police will not ask people about   
   immigration status, share information with Immigration and Customs   
   Enforcement, make arrests based on ICE warrants or transfer people into   
   ICE custody.

   "I keep saying Boston follows the laws. We are going to keep doing what we   
   do because we are in full compliance with the laws, which say that   
   municipal officials and municipal police departments have authority over   
   enforcing crimes at the local level in keeping everyone in their community   
   safe," Wu recently told WBUR. "Immigration falls under the federal   
   government and federal officials. It is not the purview of city officials   
   to be involved in doing the job of the federal government, and it’s not   
   the federal government’s job to what should happen at the local level   
   either."   
      
   Meanwhile, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft's son, Josh Kraft, who   
   is running to replace Wu in November, said in a Feb. 26 statement that he   
   supports "removing violent criminals from our community, wherever they   
   come from."

   Kraft further voiced his support for the Trust Act and condemned Trump's   
   plans to curb illegal immigration and deport criminal migrants.   
      
   "It is outrageous to consider ICE officers raiding schools or places of   
   worship to round up undocumented immigrants who are not engaged in   
   criminal activity," Kraft said, referring to a recent Department of   
   Homeland Security (DHS) directive that rescinds the previous Biden   
   administration's guidelines preventing ICE and Customs and Border   
   Protection officers from enforcing the law in "sensitive" areas.
