Malliotakis' Call to End New York Sanctuary

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 29, 2017

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has created a list of 170 "serious crimes, violent crimes" for which the city would cooperate with ICE on deportation proceedings. New York State Assembly member, Nicole Malliotakis, says it does not go far enough to cover enough major crimes such as "sexual abuse, grand larceny" and more.

Malliotakis discusses her call on the City of New York to comply with President Trump's orders to end sanctuary city protection and explains her lawsuit against the City to block the destruction of IDNYC database.
