Boston Mayor Michelle Wu will take questions regarding sanctuary city policies from Congress on Wednesday. Since Trump's victory, Wu has doubled down on Boston’s sanctuary city status.

"Boston continues to experience crime, drug activity, and human trafficking stemming from [migrant] facilities," Jon Fetherston, a former Massachusetts migrant shelter director, told Fox News Digital. "While Mayor Wu enjoys strong backing from her base, largely influenced by Sen. Elizabeth Warren … residents and surrounding communities are frustrated and embarrassed by her leadership."
Amy Carnevale, chair of the state's Republican Party, MassGOP, told Fox News Digital that she expects Wu to talk about "how Boston is a safer city than" New York City, Denver and Chicago, which will also be under a congressional microscope Wednesday as leaders from all four cities are called to testify.
