The lawmakers in Albuquerque, N.M. apparently have no interest in the rule of law. In a 6-3 vote, the city council barred immigration officials who do not have a warrant from going into city-operated areas to detain illegal immigrants.
Albuquerque’s majority-Democratic council voted 6-3 in favor of a measure to prevent federal immigration officials from entering city-operated areas, including a prisoner transport center, without a warrant.
In a televised meeting, the council also barred city workers, including police, from collecting information on peoples’ immigration status and prohibited local tax dollars from being spent on federal immigration law enforcement. (Reuters)
