Republican gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli is taking a hardline stand against New Jersey’s sanctuary city policies, vowing to end them if elected. He blasted Newark Mayor Ras Baraka for trespassing at a federal immigration detention center, calling it a dangerous stunt that puts Americans at risk. Ciattarelli praised law enforcement for arresting Baraka, stressing that no one is above the law.
Ciattarelli exposed leaked emails showing state officials ordered police to ignore federal immigration warrants. He argued these policies handcuff officers and make communities less safe. The Republican candidate pledged full cooperation with ICE to deport illegal immigrants, promising to undo Governor Murphy’s “weak” directives.
Democrats running against Ciattarelli want New Jersey to become a full sanctuary state, shielding criminals from deportation. Ciattarelli warned this would attract more illegal immigration, overwhelming schools and hospitals. He accused liberals of prioritizing politics over public safety, leaving neighborhoods vulnerable to gang violence and drug trafficking.
Newark’s mayor defended his protest, claiming ICE unfairly targets minorities. Ciattarelli fired back, saying Baraka ignores real issues like Newark’s high crime and failing schools. He criticized Democrats for focusing on “woke stunts” instead of fixing problems facing working families.
Ciattarelli promised to slash funding for cities defying federal immigration laws. He’ll deploy state police and the National Guard if local leaders refuse to assist ICE. The Republican argued that borders must be secured first to protect American jobs and tax dollars.
Law enforcement groups endorse Ciattarelli, praising his support for police. He slammed Democrats for pushing anti-cop policies that let criminals roam free. The candidate vowed to restore respect for officers and ensure they have resources to combat illegal activity.
President Trump backs Ciattarelli, calling him a “fighter” who will stand up to Biden’s open-border agenda. The Republican pledged to work closely with the Trump administration to enforce immigration laws. He urged voters to reject radical leftists trying to turn New Jersey into a magnet for illegal immigration.
The election is a choice between safety and chaos. Ciattarelli says restoring law and order starts with ending sanctuary cities. Hardworking families deserve leaders who put America first, not criminals and activists. Conservatives must unite to take back New Jersey and save it from becoming a liberal wasteland.
