The Republican Florida promises to report the mayor of Boston Wu Doj for criminal investigations

When the highly expected house committee for supervision and reform crossed the four-hour brand on Wednesday, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Florida, announced that she would report to the Mayor of the Boston Mayor Michelle Wu and the other mayor outside of the Ministry of Justice for Criminals.

WU was called together with the mayors of New York, Denver and Chicago to testify in front of the house committee about the city and immigration policy of their cities. The mayors were for hours with questions from the Republicans and Democrats from the committee members.

At the end of her question, Luna told the mayors: “I don't think you are bad people, but I think you are ideologically misleading.”

Luna continued when she maintained unknown documents that she would report all four mayors to the Ministry of Justice for Criminal Investigations after the hearing of the house.

“As soon as I go here, they will pass Pam Bondi (Attorney General),” said Luna. “I'm not doing this to harass you, but I think your guidelines violate the American people.”

WU was given by Luna especially for the Boston Trust Act, which forbids the local police to work with the US immigration and customs authority at the bourgeois enforcement efforts.

In particular, it is prohibited by police officers to ask people about their immigration status, share information with ice, to make arrests, or to keep someone who is based on Ice Civil Administrative Authority if there is no other criminal complaint, transferred to someone to ice operations or “carry out the functions of an immigration officer” in any other way.

It was signed in 2014 by the former mayor Marty Walsh in the law. In December 2024, the Boston city council confirmed its support for the Trust Act.

WU confirmed Luna that the police in Boston did not ask for an immigration status.

Luna stated that the city's trust law consists in “direct violation of the federal law” that local administrations cannot restrict communication with the federal immigration authorities. WU said that this was not correct and confirmed in the course of the hearing that Boston did not violate laws.

WU focused on many of her answers that Boston was one of the nation's safest capitals.
