Americans just voted in force to have President-elect Trump crackdown on illegal immigration — the city of Los Angeles doesn’t care…
According to a Fox News report, Los Angeles voted this week to adopt a sanctuary city ordinance, amid Donald Trump’s promises to carry out mass deportation raids.
From Fox News:
The 13-0 vote will prohibit Los Angeles from providing any city resources or personnel to be used to help federal enforcement of immigration laws.
City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto, along with Mayor Karen Bass, released the draft ordinance last week that was written with help from immigration groups.
Council members Hugo Soto-Martinez and Monica Rodriguez, who chair the council’s Civil Rights and Public Safety committees, respectively, waived the matter from their jurisdictions to expedite a vote on the matter.
California has been a sanctuary state since 2017 with the passage of SB 54, which prohibits local law enforcement agencies from using resources to investigate, detain, report or arrest people for immigration violations.
During a debate Tuesday, many public speakers pushed for the sanctuary ordinance, saying immigrant communities should be protected from “unimaginable cruelty” of raids that could separate families and target migrants who come to the U.S. to work.
Others raised concerns about the depletion of resources given to help illegal immigrants, given that the city is contending with mass homelessness and a housing crisis.
Sanctuary cities typically don’t cooperate with federal immigration authorities, refusing to honor detainer requests from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which are used to take custody of criminal illegal immigrants for deportation.
Donald Trump’s selected border czar Tom Homan has a stern warning for liberal mayors and governors who hinder the new administration’s plan to deport illegal migrants; “Don’t cross that line.”
Homan made the comments during a recent appearance on Fox & Friends.
“Well first of all, if they don’t want to help us, get the hell out of the way, we’re going to do it,” Homan said.
“If I got to send twice the amount of resources to that city, that’s what we are going to do. If they give us access to the jail, that’ll mean less agents in their community,” Homan said. “For them pushing back and not letting us in the jail, it just means more agents are going to be in the community, so they’re hurting themselves.”
“Finally I will say this: They need to educate themselves. They need to review this: Title 8, United States Code § 1324 (III), read about that, and don’t cross that line, because it is a felony to harbor and conceal illegal aliens from ICE. Read the statute. Don’t cross that line.”
