The Department of Homeland Security has urged New York to abandon its sanctuary laws, which limit cooperation between local police and federal immigration authorities. Officials argue these policies hinder efforts to enforce immigration laws and compromise public safety by shielding undocumented individuals from deportation proceedings. The call comes amid ongoing debates over state and federal authority in handling immigration enforcement. Critics of the laws say they create barriers to information-sharing that could impact national security and law enforcement priorities.
