Cape And Islands Represented On Federal Sanctuary City List

The C-and-I is heavily represented on the Trump administration's list of sanctuary cities.

The Department of Homeland Security has published a list of jurisdictions across the country that are protecting criminal immigrants from facing consequences for illegal border crossings, and Massachusetts as a whole is identified as a state sanctuary jurisdiction.

That includes, Barnstable, Dukes, Nantucket and Plymouth counties, with a special nod to the Town of Orleans.

State Attorney General Andrea Campbell has recently released a Know Your Rights guide to help folks navigate ICE encounters and arrests.
