Immigration Group Files Lawsuit Against Gary, Ind.'s Sanctuary City Policy
(CNSNews.com) -- The Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) and the Bopp Law Firm announced today that they have filed a lawsuit against the City of Gary, Ind., its mayor, and its Common Council members, charging that Gary's sanctuary city ordinance, which shelters illegal aliens, violates a state law that mandates cooperation with federal immigration laws.
The city operates under ordinance 1900, adopted in May 2017, which defines Gary as a "welcoming city," which means local law enforcement is forbidden from cooperating with federal immigration officials when it comes to illegal aliens.
