The Trump administration is scaling up its crackdown on sanctuary cities, warning them to abandon their policies or face more immigration raids and legal action. The Justice Department has sued over half a dozen states and cities, including New York City on Thursday, after an off-duty immigration officer was shot. The lawsuit claims the city's lack of cooperation with federal immigration officials led to the incident and violates federal law. These so-called sanctuary policies generally limit local police from coordinating with federal immigration agents on unrelated investigations, which the administration argues protects criminals and endangers officers.The administration is considering similar actions elsewhere and threatening to cut federal funding and prosecute state and local leaders. Now, cities like Louisville, Kentucky, and Washington, D.C., are either dropping or planning to lose their sanctuary city status to avoid these federal lawsuits."Sanctuary cities are sanctuaries for criminals. Hard stop," White House border czar Tom Homan said, "Sanctuary cities are going to get exactly what they don't want: more agents in the communities and more worksite enforcement. Why is that? Because they won't let one agent arrest one bad guy to jail."More immigration enforcement is expected now that the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has passed. The law dedicates $150 billion to expanding detention centers, deportation efforts and border security.The administration is cracking down not only on sanctuary cities but also on homelessness. On Thursday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to remove homeless people from the streets, directing the Justice Department to help local and state governments force individuals into mental health and substance abuse treatment centers and hospitals. But critics argue that providing stable and affordable housing along with voluntary support services is a more effective approach. The order follows a Supreme Court decision last year allowing cities to criminalize homelessness.Watch the latest on the Trump administration's immigration crackdown:
