Trump Loses Yet Another Sanctuary City Case—This Time Against New York City

A federal judge in Brooklyn ruled that even if federal law did preempt New York City's sanctuary policies, the Tenth Amendment's anticommandeering doctrine would still block the Trump administration's suit. The ruling leans heavily on Murphy v. NCAA, a 2018 decision written by Justice Alito and joined by all the other conservatives then on the Court.
