President Donald Trump made it clear he is working on a plan to remove federal funding for sanctuary cities on his Truth Social platform on Thursday. In an early morning post, the president said, “No more Sanctuary Cities! They protect the Criminals, not the Victims.”
Trump went on to criticize sanctuary states and cities, declaring, “They are disgracing our Country and are being mocked all over the World. Working on papers to withhold all Federal Funding for any City or State that allows these Death Traps to exist!!!”
The indication that the president is working on papers to withhold all federal funding for any city or state that “allows these Death Traps to exist” may indicate that an action affecting federal funding is imminent. Sanctuary states and cities are generally identified as those that have policies or laws that preclude local and state law enforcement officials from cooperating with federal authorities on matters related to illegal immigration.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, in Massachusetts, current law does not allow state law enforcement authorities to detain an illegal alien for federal immigration purposes longer than necessary for state law enforcement purposes. This means they cannot honor ICE detainers. In addition, sanctuary policies in several cities across the state prohibit local police from cooperating with ICE agents to include information sharing.
