Sanctuary cities have become hotbeds of crime, chaos, and lawlessness, as Democrat mayors continue to shield illegal aliens from deportation while their own citizens suffer. Now, these reckless policies are finally coming under fire as the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is placing these mayors under siege, demanding answers for their blatant disregard for law and order.
Congress Investigates the Mayors of America’s Most Dangerous Sanctuary Cities
Mayors from New York City, Chicago, Denver, and Boston—all cities plagued with skyrocketing crime—have been summoned to testify before Congress. Their crime-ridden cities have seen an explosion of violence, drug trafficking, and gang activity, yet these mayors have chosen to harbor illegal aliens instead of protecting their own citizens.
Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and other Republican leaders are demanding answers from these mayors, exposing how their sanctuary policies have turned American cities into war zones.
New York City – Crime is spiraling out of control as migrants flood the streets, attacking police officers, committing assaults, and overwhelming shelters. Yet, Mayor Eric Adams has caved to the radical left and refuses to cooperate with ICE.
🔹 Chicago – The once-great city is now a bloodbath, with carjackings, gang shootings, and robberies skyrocketing—all while Mayor Brandon Johnson bends over backward to fund housing and benefits for illegal aliens over struggling Americans.
🔹 Denver – Crime has exploded in this sanctuary city, as drug cartels use the lax enforcement to push fentanyl onto the streets, killing American citizens.
🔹 Boston – A surge in homelessness, violent crime, and drug use has taken over the city, yet Mayor Michelle Wu continues to prioritize illegal migrants over hardworking taxpayers.
What do all these cities have in common? They have embraced sanctuary policies that put criminals first and Americans last.
The Case Against Sanctuary Cities: Harboring Criminals, Fueling Crime
Sanctuary city policies prevent local law enforcement from working with ICE, meaning that dangerous criminals who should be deported are instead released back onto the streets. The result?
- Violent crime surging in sanctuary cities
- Illegal aliens committing rapes, murders, and assaults with no fear of deportation
- Fentanyl and human trafficking skyrocketing
During the hearing, Republicans grilled these mayors on why they continue to block immigration enforcement, even when illegals commit violent crimes.
🔹 Representative Andy Biggs (R-AZ) asked, “Why are sanctuary cities protecting criminals over their own citizens? Why are we allowing repeat offenders to walk free?”
🔹 Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) pointed out, “The American people are tired of lawless cities where criminals roam free, while their hard-earned tax dollars are spent on housing and welfare for illegal immigrants.”

Congress Calls for an End to Sanctuary Cities – Will These Mayors Be Held Accountable?
In addition to exposing sanctuary cities, the committee is also exploring ways to use technology to strengthen immigration enforcement. A hearing titled “Leveraging Technology to Strengthen Immigration Enforcement” revealed how cutting-edge tracking and border security measures could stop this crisis—if Democrats weren’t blocking them.
The American people have had enough. Sanctuary cities are destroying public safety, and Congress is finally holding these Democrat-run cities accountable.
