ICE SURGE LOOMS: BOSTON MAYOR WARNS COPS WHO TIP OFF ICE WILL BE DISCIPLINED UNDER TRUST ACT

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu warned that any city police officer who leaks information to ICE will face discipline under the city’s Trust Act, responding to ICE Director Todd Lyons’ claims of getting tips from local officers and reports of a looming enforcement surge targeting limited-cooperation cities. Wu said there’s no evidence of violations, credited the Trust Act with boosting community trust and safety, and said the city is preparing for a possible federal blitz. The comments frame the anticipated ICE operations as retaliatory toward jurisdictions that restrict cooperation.
