Pam Bondi freezes DOJ funding for sanctuary cities, as Michelle Wu gets date to testify in front of Congress
Story by Rick Sobey, Boston Herald • 7h
Attorney General Pam Bondi on her first day in charge put a freeze on Department of Justice funding to sanctuary cities, as Boston Mayor Michelle Wu got a date to testify before a Congressional oversight committee investigating sanctuary city policies.
Bondi, who was approved as AG on Tuesday evening, issued a day-one memo about sanctuary jurisdictions, as President Trump ramps up his illegal immigration crackdown.
“ … The Department of Justice will ensure that, consistent with law, ‘sanctuary jurisdictions’ do not receive access to Federal funds from the Department,” reads Bondi’s memo.
“Sanctuary jurisdictions should not receive access to federal grants administered by the Department of Justice,” the memo later states.
