Federation for American Immigration Reform and 17 Maryland Sheriffs Sue to Stop State’s New Sanctuary Law
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) joined 17 Maryland sheriffs in a lawsuit attacking the “Community Trust Act,” a newly-enacted sanctuary law that blocks sheriffs from cooperating and sharing information with federal immigration law enforcement.
“Sanctuary laws are not only dangerous to our communities, but they are also flatly unconstitutional,” said Dale L. Wilcox, executive director and general counsel of FAIR.
“Our nation must speak with one voice when dealing with the national problem of illegal immigration, and the federal government must be able to pursue a unified policy, or the supremacy of federal law is in name only. The aim of this lawsuit is to allow Maryland sheriffs to go on keeping their communities safe by striking down this law’s blatant interference with crucially important national objectives.”
