California police chief could lose job for following federal immigration law

Oakland Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick is now the subject of an internal affairs investigation after she helped federal agents arrest an illegal immigrant. Why is she in such hot water? Because Oakland is a sanctuary city.
What’s the backstory?

According to Kirkpatrick’s account, she sent her officers to assist federal ICE agents in a human trafficking operation in August, but informed the federal officials that her officers would not be making any arrests. Instead, the Oakland officers simply engaged in traffic enforcement, blocking the streets for the immigration agents so they could continue their operation safely. Oakland officers did not participate in the operation itself.

Is California an at-will state? If not, she might have an easy lawsuit on her hands.

California is an at will state, but that doesn't mean it's a slam dunk for the employer. But then cities like Oakland and Berkeley are like Austin and San Antonio, they aren't really part  of America they are ensconced in liberal land
