Should be quite a show!
Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee are expected to grill Govs. Tim Walz of Minnesota, Kathy Hochul of New York and JB Pritzker of Illinois over their states’ status as sanctuaries for migrants.
The hearing, scheduled more than a month ago, comes amid unrest in California over President Trump’s immigration policies.
However, Thursday’s hearing will also present a test for the governors, as Pritzker and Walz have been floated as potential 2028 presidential contenders and Hochul faces reelection in 2026.
Republicans will likely link the issues of crime and immigration, a strategy that has helped them in New York and elsewhere in recent elections.
