Homan: Ending sanctuary city policies will save ‘thousands of lives’

White House border czar Tom Homan said Tuesday that the Trump administration intends to eliminate sanctuary city policies, arguing the moves will prevent deaths. Homan's comments came after a college student was killed in Chicago last week, an incident the administration is using to frame its crackdown on cities that limit local police cooperation with federal immigration authorities. Sanctuary cities have long been a flashpoint between the Trump administration and Democratic-led municipalities that argue such policies protect immigrant communities and separate immigration enforcement from local policing. Homan told NewsNation that President Trump is committed to pursuing this agenda aggressively. The administration views ending these policies as central to its immigration enforcement strategy.
