Trump moves to cut federal funding for “death trap” sanctuary cities

President Donald Trump has vowed to strip federal funding from sanctuary cities, arguing they endanger Americans by shielding criminal undocumented immigrants.
Sanctuary cities (e.g., Chicago, New York) refuse ICE cooperation, while critics say sanctuary city policies undermine law enforcement and public safety.
Billions in federal grants – including law enforcement and social programs – could be cut, forcing cities to choose between sanctuary policies and essential services.
Courts previously blocked Trump’s efforts, but his administration believes it now has stronger legal grounds. Democrats pledge to resist, calling the move political.
The crackdown aligns with Trump's plans for mass deportations and stricter border enforcement, with Chicago as a key target for ICE raids.
