Sanctuary for Peace
Tune in for the twice-monthly podcast version of FYI Salem! Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll interviews city officials, community leaders, notable residents, and more, and provides a brief update on the latest news and information from the City of Salem, from inside City Hall and across the community. On this episode Mayor Driscoll talks with Salem Police Chief Mary Butler and Alexandra Pineros Shields, the executive director of the Essex County Community Organization. The three discuss how Salem welcomes immigrants, current policies and practices by the Salem Police and the City in their interactions with the immigrant community, and what is - and is not - proposed in the "sanctuary for peace" ordinance.
