New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Monday doubled down while speaking to a group at a town hall meeting in Canarsie, Brooklyn, saying the sanctuary city law needs to be modified so that any migrant who commits a felony can be turned over to ICE and deported.
Adams commended his administration for doing an excellent job during a challenging time, but stated his hands are tied by federal and local law.
The mayor spoke about some migrants participating in robberies and using mopeds to commit snatch and grab stick-ups.
The issue, Adams said, became a real problem, so the police chief and his team focused on the illegal mopeds and found many of the people committing the crimes had drugs and guns.
But he said not all the migrants and asylum seekers were committing crimes and many of them were there and want to work.
The mayor blamed migrants not being able to work on federal lawmakers, adding the migrants need to have the right to work like everyone else.
"But those small numbers that are committing crimes? We need to modify the sanctuary city law, so that if you commit a felony… we should be able to turn you over to ICE and have you deported," Adams said.

So based on their illegal status they get a "Get out of jail free card".
The case is dismissed and ICE deports them and they come right back in a week. No charges pending.
