Congress Wades Into Sanctuary Cities, Again
Posted by Kenric Ward | Jul 5, 2017 | Congress | 6 |
Congress’s crackdown on sanctuary cities comes with a strong sense of déjà-vu.
Back in 1996, lawmakers directed cities to comply with U.S. immigration laws, “notwithstanding any other provision of … state or local law …”
Yet sanctuary cities have flourished under Congress’s nose for the past 21 years.
Last week, the House repeated the verbiage in its “No Sanctuary for Criminals Act” (HR 3003).
