On Wednesday, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that the Department of Justice has filed charges against New York Governor Kathy Hochul and state Attorney General Leticia James, both Democrats, for allegedly failing to enforce federal immigration laws.
Bondi said the lawsuit was also filed against Mark Schroeder, New York's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) commissioner and the state of New York.
"This is a new DOJ. We are taking steps to protect American citizens. As you know, we sued Illinois, and New York didn't listen... you're next," Bondi said at her first press conference as President Donald Trump's attorney general.
Last week, the U.S. government filed a lawsuit against the state of Illinois, the city of Chicago, and Cook County in federal court, saying that their sanctuary city laws obstruct Trump's immigration enforcement policies.
