Sanctuary Map Update: About 170 Locations Added--Some are in states with anti-sanctuary laws
New information obtained from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has enabled the Center to update its map of sanctuary jurisdictions. Based on the most recent reporting from ICE field offices, about 170 new jurisdictions have been added to the map. Some of these sanctuary jurisdictions are located in states that have passed laws to prohibit such policies. The states with the most jurisdictions added to the map are Virginia, North Dakota, Nebraska, New York, and Minnesota.
Since 2015, the Center has been tracking sanctuaries, which we define as those state and local jurisdictions that have laws, ordinances, policies, or practices that prevent state and/or law enforcement agencies from cooperating fully with ICE in gaining custody of criminal aliens who have been arrested for local crimes. Over the years, more than 10,000 criminal aliens have been released by local authorities due to sanctuary policies, and many of these criminal aliens have subsequently been arrested for additional crimes. In one eight-month period documented by ICE in 2014-15, of about 8,000 criminal aliens released by sanctuary jurisdictions, about 1,800 offenders were arrested again within the eight-month period for 7,500 new crimes.
In the case of North Dakota, the state anti-sanctuary law appears to be written too loosely to ensure cooperation with ICE. Passed in April 2023, the law forbids all state and local institutions from prohibiting anyone from communicating or cooperating with federal agencies “to verify or report the immigration status of an individual.” The law does not require North Dakota jails and prisons to honor ICE detainers, as other state laws do. This is problematic for public safety in North Dakota, which is a border state with illicit trafficking routes, and which is in proximity to burgeoning drug cartel activity on tribal lands in Montana.
