Sanctuary City’ officials, advocates jittery about Trump

November 14, 2016
Illinois Democrat Congressman Mike Quigley indicated to the Chicago Tribune that he is worried President-elect Donald Trump may follow through on his campaign promise to cut off federal funding to so-called “sanctuary cities” that ignore federal immigration law.

Quigley said something many sanctuary critics might find remarkably shallow: “The president-elect said he would cut off all federal funding to sanctuary cities — an extraordinary thing to say, particularly for someone who says the federal government should stay out of the local governing of states and cities.”

That’s hardly extraordinary. What better way for the federal government to stay out of local government than to withdraw federal money? Traditionally, if the feds spend a nickel anywhere, they want a dollar’s worth of control. With no money in the pot, the federal government can clear whatever conscience it has and let cities swim or sink on their own.

How sad it is that they are worried a politician would actually follow through on a promise. They are not used to keeping those pesky little things.

Emanuel Tells Undocumented Immigrants Chicago ‘Always Will Be A Sanctuary City’
November 14, 2016
CHICAGO (CBS) — Even as President-elect Donald Trump vows to immediately deport 2 to 3 million undocumented immigrants when he takes office in January, Mayor Rahm Emanuel is reaffirming Chicago’s commitment as a so-called “sanctuary city.”

“To be clear about what Chicago is, it always will be a sanctuary city,” the mayor said Monday.

Emanuel sought to reassure those worried about Trump’s interview on “60 Minutes,” in which he said he plans to immediately deport or incarcerate up to 3 million undocumented immigrants who have criminal records.

I can't wait for this. Who's going to stop them. The cops will be cheering him on. They hate the mayor. I hope they do loose their funding. Then the push to get rid of NYC would be greater.

Also what would these liberals say if Texas did not obey federal gun laws?

Sanctuary cities are aiding and abetting people committing a crime. How in the world can anyone sit there and say anything different.

Schools must allow transgender bathrooms, Department of Education says
May 13, 2016

The guidance doesn't have the force of law, but tells schools how the Department of Education intends to enforce Title IX in the future. And because Title IX is directly tied to federal education funding, the guidance carries an implied threat: Follow the federal guidelines or risk losing those funds.

The letter is addressed to all schools that receive federal funding, including 16,500 school districts and 7,000 colleges, universities and trade schools. It also applies to charter schools, for-profit schools, libraries and museums that receive federal aid.

But the denial of federal funds appears to be a recourse the federal government is reluctant to take. Addressing the North Carolina law on Thursday, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said the Obama administration "will not take action to withhold funding while this enforcement action is playing out in the courts."

All the defunding threats by Obama NOW will bite liberals that thought it was so brilliant .. in the butt

Due to Chicago's ever breaking murder stats, I suspect Rahm's open invitation is a way to get some new voters in for him and continue to provide target practice for the gangs.

Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti also insisted Monday that Special Order 40 would remain in place despite the president-elect’s comments.

“Our law enforcement officers and LAPD don’t go around asking people for their papers, nor should they,” Garcetti told members of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles. “That’s not the role of local law enforcement.”

Beck added that he had been working with local community leaders to discuss their concerns over what could happen once Trump is in the White House.

I was surprised to learn that we have a sanctuary county in the north country- st. Lawrence Co. - right next door to us.

 

[Mr. terzmo]

The bottom line is the "illegals" have broken the law and those dip$hit liberals think selection of enforcement for laws is fine. I think NOT.

I submit the Trumpster should strangle those cities and place charges against all the mayors/and city officials who are proven law breakers regardless of party affiliation...Then on to NY and cutoff aid until the furher gets his "mind right"

 

[ProgSpear]

First order of business is to purge the entire DoJ of DemocRats, then the prosecution of the lawbreakers in sanctuary cities can proceed.

Feel Free to House illegals in your own home Emanuel you P.O.S, that goes for anyone else in favor of this crap!

Once again one of these pieces of crap pushing a false narrative. NOBODY said to "check their papers" you troublemaker!!
The law says that when an illegal is identified, they must be held and turned over to ICE. This means when someone is stopped for speeding or any other meetings with LEO, and found to be illegal, they are detained.
This ass wad is literally telling people that Trump wants cops to randomly stop brown people and ask for proof of citizenship. This guy is TRYING to cause unrest, he should be punished. Liar.

True, that's the role of grocery store clerks, bartenders, etc.
