Listen to "Are Immigrants Less Willing to Report Crime?" on Spreaker.Summary
One of the most frequently cited justifications for sanctuary policies is the claim that immigrants are less willing to report victimization to authorities. A report was released by the Center for Immigration Studies casts doubt on this claim, using the latest data from the National Crime Victimization Survey.
