Democrat mayor reverses course on detainer rules after federal government warns of legal action

Trump DOJ sues Los Angeles over sanctuary city policies
Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin reports on the Justice Department’s lawsuit against Los Angeles over its sanctuary city policies. U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli joins ‘America’s Newsroom’ to react.

The mayor of Louisville, Kentucky, informed the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Monday that he is shifting the city's more restrictive policy on federal immigration detainers after the government warned it would sue over it.

Mayor Craig Greenberg, a Democrat, wrote in a letter obtained by Fox News Digital that the policy change was partly to avoid being targeted as a "sanctuary" city, a term used to describe jurisdictions with policies at odds with federal immigration enforcement.

"My understanding is that, by returning to our pre-2017 practices and again honoring 48-hour detainers, thereby functionally extending the notice period to DHS from 5-12 hours to 48 hours, Louisville will no longer be considered a sanctuary jurisdiction and, as a result, will no longer be vulnerable to the negative consequences of this designation," Greenberg wrote to Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate. "The city will, therefore, adjust its detainer policy to avoid litigation over DOJ's allegations of federal preemption."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Greenberg is an idiot, but he apparently could see the writing on the wall.

It sure is a shift for their position just a month ago.

And Greenberg had to make this change...too many of the initiatives he wants to get completed in order to get reelected depend on federal funds.

Like most deep blue cities across the country, they need our tax dollars to continue their social welfare programs.
