AUBURN, Wash. — Preparing for a run for governor in the new year, State Senator Phil Fortunato filed a bill on Monday to repeal Governor Jay Inslee's law designating Washington as a "sanctuary state."
"What this bill does is allow cooperation with federal law enforcement for immigration policies," said Fortunato, of Auburn.
The move would nullify any current sanctuary city or county designations, require local law enforcement to assist ICE and prosecute anyone who refuses to comply.
