Resource to help Americans fight sanctuary city policies
Story by Bethany Blankley | The Center Square contributor • 22h
(The Center Square) – A new resource has been launched to help Americans fight so-called sanctuary city policies in their city, county and state. It also provides them with information about the law to use for a potential lawsuit.
The resource was published after hundreds of elected officials nationwide said they weren’t planning on cooperating with the incoming Trump administration’s mass deportation plan prioritizing the most violent offenders.
America First Legal published a SHIELD resource (Stop Helping Illegals Enter and Linger without Deportation), which includes a map of states where government officials have said they oppose enforcing federal immigration laws.
The map is not all inclusive – it excludes several Democratic cities in Texas, for example, whose city councils or county commissioners are using taxpayer money to pay for the legal defense of those facing deportation. A Republican state lawmaker has filed a bill in the Texas legislature to stop taxpayer money from being used for such purposes.
