Announcement by Fmr Gov. and NYC Mayoral Candidate Andrew Cuomo

Published | Video Starts at 43:56

I do believe Mayor Adams has compromised his position. I do believe as part of the deal he made with the president, he has agreed to cooperate with the immigration authorities. I think he put his own personal interest ahead of the interest of New Yorkers. I think that was a violation of his oath and I think you did a disservice to all New Yorkers. I will oppose any violation of the sanctuary city law. You're also right that President Trump did say dangerous criminals and undangerous criminals. Yes. We don't harbor criminals in New York City. (43:56–44:10)
