新罕布什尔州已成为第一个禁止庇护城市的新英格兰州,限制了地方与联邦移民执法部门的合作。 New Hampshire has become the first New England state to ban sanctuary cities, which limit local cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. 共和党州长Kelly Ayotte签署两项法案,禁止城市采取保护无证移民免遭驱逐的政策。 Republican Governor Kelly Ayotte signed two bills that prohibit cities from adopting policies that shield undocumented immigrants from deportation. 这些法律定于1月生效,并允许当地执法部门在移民归化局提出要求的情况下,在释放日期之后最多拘留两天的非法移民嫌疑人。 The laws, set to take effect in January, also allow local law enforcement to detain suspected illegal immigrants for up to two days beyond their release date if ICE requests it. Ayotte在GOP立法者的支持下, 认为这些措施加强了安全, 而批评者则担心公民自由。 Ayotte, supported by GOP lawmakers, argues the measures enhance safety, while critics worry about civil liberties.
