A database containing the identity of undocumented immigrants living in New York City would not be opened up to a Trump administration without a "real fight," the city's mayor said on Thursday.
Mayor Bill de Blasio, speaking at a news conference the day after President-elect Donald Trump's stunning electoral victory, also left open the possibility that the database, which holds personal information from the more than 850,000 New Yorkers who have a city municipal identification card, could be scrubbed. The IDNYC card was introduced in 2015 as a free and official proof of identification that could be obtained with limited documentation -- making it accessible to the nearly half million city residents without legal immigration status. The personal information of cardholders, including addresses and dates of birth, is stored on encrypted databases and servers, according to the city. It cannot be disclosed to federal law enforcement or immigration authorities without permission from the city's human resources administration. Applicants do not have to disclose their immigration status to receive a card.

ID card, with limited documentation, great. Probably could be used to register to vote too.
Bring Comrade Wilhelm up on Federal charges.That will change his mind.
Why couldn't Republican Governors do this when it came to Obamacare or homo marriage.
Get ‘Em all, President Trump! Lock all their ass:s up!
It’s very simple. Some good person in the PD or otherwise, upon hearing this, has already run a copy off on a thumbdrive.....
How much do they like illegals vs how much do they like Federal Funds
The new AG, not known for suffering fools or criminals, might be looking into that...
Trump wants to cut off Federal funding to sanctuary cities.
No pork for you!
They might not know about it..but if Bill keeps it up..they will figure it out.
Maybe an insider will leak it to Assange
So it’ll be charges of Obstruction of Justice and Destruction of Evidence for DiBlasio. All righty then.
I suspect the NYC database of illegals is grossly inaccurate and probably riddled with fraud.
De bla bla could be tried by Trump’s Justice Department for obstruction of justice.
Withhold all federal funds from “sanctuary cities” that do not cooperate with federal authorities. If the Left can do it with bathroom access, we can do it with harboring criminals.
THREATS? Already? WHAT a guy, WHAT a "team player."
The Marxists and their willing accomplices will never quit. They are a cancer. They must be imprisoned whenever possible.
See...laws only apply to the chumps. It will a glorious day when this self-appointed hero and violator of federal laws goes to jail too. de Blasio is obviously a slaver...riding the backs of illegal aliens.
Deny federal funding until proper documentation is presented.
They’re trying political solutions with a man of business. Won’t work IMO.
There’s probably a prosecutable offense in current Federal Law for such actions....
