“I’ve had the support system to be able to keep plugging in and plugging away at the city’s issues,” Wu said on GBH. “My daily check ins with staff now happen over Zoom, and the doctor said to try to stay off my feet for about two weeks, so I’m right at that point as well.”

Wu gave birth to her daughter on Jan. 14, exactly two weeks ago Monday, and is taking the baby to her two week check-up later today, she said.

Mira will join her at City Hall on Tuesday “because I can’t be away from her for too long, with the nursing at this point,” Wu added.

In the interview, Wu also answered questions about her revived property tax home rule petition, as well as her mayoral challenger Josh Kraft. But she particularly doubled down on her commitment to upholding Boston’s law that bans local law enforcement from cooperating with requests from federal immigration authorities to detain people suspected of being undocumented immigrants, unless they are also wanted for a serious crime.

“We don’t enforce federal immigration law — our police department takes care of criminal activity, and they focus on local issues, and whenever someone breaks the law, we hold them accountable here, regardless of their immigration status, which we do not ask about and interact with,” Wu said.

Wu’s comments drew a harsh rebuke from President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan last year, and last week, ICE Boston made some highly publicized arrests of people they said were in the country illegally.

A FOX News team embedded with ICE officials to document the operation, which Wu pointed to as evidence of authorities trying to “sensationalize and stoke greater fear about it.”

On GBH Monday, Wu also responded to the president’s threat of prosecuting local officials who “interfere” with his administration’s efforts to deport undocumented residents.

“There’s been a lot of bluster so far and a lot of [intentionally] trying to create drama and fear and sort of perception of fulfilling pretty draconian campaign promises,” Wu said.

“The federal government will continue to do what they do on the federal side,” she continued. “We will continue to do what we do on the city side, which is keeping everyone safe here, and we don’t have the authority to, let’s say, stop or overrule what they’re doing in their domain, but neither do they in our domain, either.”

She said her administration has instructed school leaders to not allow any unauthorized adults in school buildings, including federal immigration authorities.

“Those spaces will continue to be spaces where we don’t ask about immigration status, and everyone is guaranteed to have access to a quality education,” she said. “We are going to be there to provide services for our residents, no matter what part of the city and no matter what background.”

“It doesn’t help anyone from a public safety impact when law-abiding residents and members of our community are forced into the shadows because of fear,” she added.

However, when asked whether she would go as far as former Mayor Martin J. Walsh, and offer City Hall as a refuge to undocumented residents, Wu stopped short.

“I’m not one for performative actions that could theoretically put our residents at even greater risk,” said Wu. “We are going to do everything that we can to make sure we are implementing and providing the supports that are needed for our residents, but that has not been something that has come up as a helpful step.”
