NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – As President Trump begins his second term in office, he is making moves on campaign promises, including several attempts to find and deport immigrants who are in the country illegally. It's a move that some law enforcement agencies in New Mexico do not fully support. "On day one, I will launch the largest deportation program of criminals in American history," President Donald Trump during his 2024 presidential campaign. This rhetoric has many law enforcement officials in New Mexico worried about the message being heard by the immigrant community. "I don't think this is going to do anything but make us less safe in our community if we have immigrants who are scared to report crimes," says Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman. "We need everybody in this community, immigrant included, to participate in this process. And that means those brave souls who are willing to report crime that happens in their community." Trump’s Palestinian refugee idea falls flat with Jordan and confounds a Senate ally Last year, a proposed city bill threatened Albuquerque's immigrant-friendly status by allowing the city to enforce federal immigration laws if an immigrant committed a violent crime. In August, the Albuquerque Police Department, the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office, and city officials spoke out against the legislation, fearing it would scare the immigrant community. Councilors eventually voted against the bill. "We do not work in any way with what ICE does, and the federal government and so forth. APD is our police, it's our community. They are not beholden to the whims of politicians in Washington," said Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller at the time. One tool law enforcement has to encourage immigrants to work with officers is special visas called U visas. Victims of violent and sexual crimes or human trafficking can apply for U visas if they cooperate with law enforcement in bringing criminals to justice. Trump should rethink revoking former officials’ security details, Tom Cotton says "That trust is extremely important when it comes to public service and public safety. That is why our immigrant-friendly status is so important," says Bregman. "The idea of assisting in any type of immigration law efforts is not something this office is going to participate in." Mayor Keller reaffirmed Albuquerque's commitment to its immigrant-friendly status on Friday afternoon. While this policy means law enforcement won't check the status of suspects, witnesses, or victims, the Metropolitan Detention Center does look at the immigration status of suspects.
