New Hampshire Bans Sanctuary Cities, Becomes First State in New England to Do So
New Hampshire has become the first state in New England to ban sanctuary cities, marking a significant shift in its policies on immigration and public safety. The move follows similar legislation in other states across the US.

New Hampshire has become the first state in New England to ban sanctuary cities, a move aimed at restricting cities from refusing to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. The ban was enacted through legislation, stating 'there will be no sanctuary cities in New Hampshire.' The measure is part of growing national efforts to enforce federal immigration policies, although its impact remains uncertain. As the first state in the region to implement such a policy, New Hampshire sets a precedent for neighboring states.
