The city of Hampton, Virginia, is addressing a recent label by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that placed it among “sanctuary jurisdictions.” City leaders have not just accepted this designation—they’re actively challenging it, saying the term doesn’t reflect Hampton’s policies or actions. Video summary generated with artificial intelligence.
Recently, the Department of Homeland Security included Hampton on a list of sanctuary jurisdictions. This drew attention from local media, residents, and city officials. For many, the phrase sparks debate and strong feelings.
The Department of Homeland Security uses the label to highlight places it believes are out of step with federal immigration enforcement. In Hampton’s case, city officials say the label simply doesn’t fit their record or behavior.
According to their official statement, the classification as a sanctuary jurisdiction is incorrect. Officials explain that Hampton has not passed any laws to make it a sanctuary city. In fact, they say none of their local rules limit cooperation with federal immigration law.
“The city of Hampton has not passed any laws to become a sanctuary city,” the statement reads. “This classification does not reflect the actual policies or practices of our city.”
City leaders stress that the city’s approach matches both Virginia law and federal expectations. In their words, Hampton works side by side with law enforcement agencies at every level. They’re calling the new label a “mischaracterization” and are ready to clear up any confusion. The city says they’re willing to provide whatever information is needed to set the record straight.
The city provided several examples of ongoing communication and support for immigration enforcement efforts:
- Cooperation with the Department of Homeland Security: Hampton officials report a strong ongoing relationship with DHS, sharing information and working together on public safety when needed.
- ICE Access to Regional Jail System: The city allows federal ICE agents full access to inspect and work with its regional jail system. This is an important detail, since sanctuary jurisdictions often deny such access.
- Housing ICE Detainees in Local Jail: The regional jail in Hampton currently houses ICE detainees. This is evidence that, despite being labeled a sanctuary jurisdiction, the city is not blocking the presence or work of immigration authorities within its borders.
Local officials pushed back strongly against being lumped with cities whose policies actually limit cooperation with federal authorities. Instead, they highlighted their ongoing partnership with DHS, ICE access to local jails, and willingness to house federal detainees.
