Actually, if Trump is successful in convincing most to end sanctuary city policies, that will put a LOT of pressure on the remaining hold outs to cave.
A look at what mayors around the U.S are saying in response to President Donald Trump’s executive order Wednesday saying he would halt funding to cities — known as sanctuary cities — that will not cooperate with federal immigration officials.
Denver, Aurora at risk for Trump action against so-called “sanctuary” cities
Denver
“We’re not a sanctuary city. We will value residents in this city. We won’t take any unlawful or unconstitutional acts against residents of the city of Denver. It is our goal to make sure people in the city feel safe and know that this is a city that’s open, welcoming and inclusive.”
Mayor Michael Hancock
Boulder
“We are not going to violate immigrants’ constitutional rights just because the new president wants us to. And we stand behind our ordinance.”
Mayor Suzanne Jones
New York City
“We’re going to defend all of our people regardless of where they come from, regardless of their immigration status.”
Mayor Bill de Blasio
Chicago
“I want to be clear: We’re going to stay a sanctuary city. There is no stranger among us. Whether you’re from Poland or Pakistan, whether you’re from Ireland or India or Israel and whether you’re from Mexico or Moldova, where my grandfather came from, you are welcome in Chicago as you pursue the American dream.”
Mayor Rahm Emanuel
Bay Area California
“We will not give in to threats, or political grandstanding. Together, the Bay Area will stay true to our values of inclusiveness, compassion and equality, and united against any and all efforts to divide our residents, our cities, and our country.”
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee, in a statement in coordination with San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf.
Boston
“To anyone who feels threatened today, or vulnerable, you are safe in Boston. We will do everything lawful in our powerful to protect you. If necessary, we will use City Hall itself to shelter and protect anyone who’s targeted unjustly.”
Mayor Martin J. Walsh
Seattle
“This city will not be bullied by this administration. We believe we have the rule of law and the courts on our side.”
Mayor Ed Murray
Los Angeles
“What we don’t do is ask local police officers to enforce federal immigration laws — and that’s an official LAPD policy that has been enforced for nearly 40 years. That is for everyone’s good, because trust between police and the people they serve is absolutely essential to effective law enforcement.”
Mayor Eric Garcetti

Yep, kick all the illegals out, then pay ten times as much for produce at the supermarkets. When you can find that produce. What we need to do is have a look at what we need to do to keep the agriculture production up, and at the same time, give the best of the workers a chance at becoming American Citizens.
