DOJ Sues NY Over Law Shielding Illegal Immigrants

📝 DESCRIPTION
DOJ Sues NY Over Law Shielding Illegal Immigrants—and the stakes couldn’t be higher. The federal government has filed suit against New York’s “Protect Our Courts Act,” a law that bars ICE agents from detaining illegal aliens at or around courthouses—even if those individuals are already in the justice system for other offenses.

The Department of Justice argues this law not only undermines federal immigration enforcement but openly defies the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause. At its core, this is more than just a legal battle—it’s a confrontation between federal law and a state ideology that refuses to recognize immigration violations as enforceable crimes.

Attorney General Pam Bondi put it bluntly: these sanctuary policies are shielding dangerous criminals, not just struggling immigrants. When state governments actively obstruct the federal process, we don’t just lose jurisdiction—we lose the clarity of justice itself.

Can a nation function if every jurisdiction rewrites the law to suit its politics?
And when “sanctuary” becomes shelter for lawbreakers, who’s left defending the law?
