Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has been asked to testify at a Congressional hearing as part of a federal investigation into sanctuary cities.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu says her administration feels “very strongly that we’re on solid legal ground” in being a sanctuary city and is still reviewing a letter it received from Congress on getting called to testify on such policies.

On Monday, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform opened a probe into so-called sanctuary cities for immigrants and has requested testimony from Boston Mayor Michelle Wu.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was one of four mayors called before the House's Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to testify on their status as sanctuary cities.

Mayor Michelle Wu will no doubt come up with some lame excuse for not testifying before Congress next month – maternity leave, racism, sexism, panic attack or some other equally bogus reason.

Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky has asked Wu to appear before a House committee next month, as it investigates 'sanctuary' communities and whether they are preventing federal immigration agents from removing dangerous criminals.
