On Saturday, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continued its pushback against the lawless scourge of sanctuary cities — this time focusing upon the particularly recalcitrant government of Mayor Bill de Blasio’s New York City.

ICE “served four immigration subpoenas Friday on the New York Department of Corrections (NYDOC) requesting information on multiple illegal aliens who were criminally arrested in New York City, and yet under New York’s non-cooperation policies officials have refused to honor ICE detainers or even provide ICE with information about the release dates of criminal alien public safety threats,” the agency stated via press release. “Issuance of these immigration subpoenas was necessary because the NYDOC has continued to ignore ICE’s requests for information and cooperation.”
