**SURGE IN ILLEGAL ALIEN INCARCERATION RAISES ALARM IN NEW YORK**

New data revealing the disproportionate incarceration of illegal immigrants in New York prisons has illuminated a pressing issue often overshadowed by debates surrounding immigration policy.

Contrary to the state's self-identified status as a sanctuary, statistics show that illegal immigrants compose a mere 3.38% of New York's population yet represent an astonishing 14% of the state's incarcerated individuals.

The stark figures come at a time when Governor Kathy Hochul’s administration continues to release thousands of undocumented immigrants from custody, including nearly 7,000 with serious criminal convictions.


This releases have raised serious questions about public safety and the state's stance on immigration enforcement. Reports indicate that since January 20, nearly 7,100 undocumented individuals currently remain behind bars, highlighting a troubling trend of illegal immigrants committing serious offenses, including homicides, assaults, and drug-related crimes.

Tricia McLaughlin, Assistant Secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, characterized many of these individuals as "the worst of the worst," calling attention to the alarming reality of public safety risks posed by these individuals walking free in communities.

Furthermore, New York's policies that prevent local authorities from cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) complicate enforcement efforts. With a staggering annual cost exceeding $1 billion to house these undocumented inmates, it raises the question of whether New York's sanctuary policies are worth the safety risks and financial burden they impose on taxpayers.

The decline in public safety has sent waves of concern throughout communities, particularly in urban centers such as New York City.

Crime rates plummeted during the tenures of former Mayors Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg but have since escalated, igniting fears of returning to the chaos of past decades.

The public deserves clarity and action from their leaders concerning the safety implications of lax immigration policies.

As the state grapples with the ramifications of its practices, one thing remains clear: policies that prioritize political ideologies over public safety cannot continue to be upheld.

In a climate where accountability is more critical than ever, New Yorkers are left to wonder how long the cycle of sanctuary-state rhetoric and public safety compromise can persist without dire consequences.
