Sanctuary cities are a brazen violation of federal law and it's inexcusble that obama allows them. Would he allow cities to violate federal gun laws.?

Sanctuary City Policies Will ‘No Longer be Tolerated in Texas,’ says Governor Abbott

oct 26 2015 Texas Governor Greg Abbott admonished Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez over her recent decision to consider honoring immigration detainers on a “case-by-case” basis. The governor said sanctuary city policies like this will “no longer be tolerated in Texas.”

Governor Abbott wrote the tersely worded letter to Sheriff Valdez after her decision announced earlier this month to scale back on honoring immigration detainers sent to her jail by the federal government’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Her announcement was reported by Breitbart Texas on October 12.

“’Sanctuary City’ policies like those promoted by your recent decision to implement your own case-by-case immigrant detention plan will no longer be tolerated in Texas,” Abbott began in his letter attached below. “Your decision to not fully honor U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) requests to detain criminal immigrants poses a serious danger to Texans. These detainers provide ICE with the critical notice and time it needs to take incarcerated immigrants into federal custody.”

“Your refusal to fully participate in a federal law enforcement program intended to keep dangerous criminals off the streets leaves the State no choice but to take whatever actions are necessary to protect our fellow Texans,” Abbott continued. “Now more than ever, it is essential that state, federal, and local law enforcement work collaboratively to protect our fellow Texans and to ensure that our laws are upheld, not disregarded.”

hey dipshit its been happening since the 80's.....how come you did not mention all the presidents since then who have also allowed this shit to go on?........
 
Do like the Feds....comply or no state money for you

I wish the gov would point out that the mayors of these cities are committing a federal felony. We all know obozo won't prosecute them but maybe the trumpster will. That should scare them into obeying the law.

Republicans control both senate and congress. Just wondering why they are not doing anything to abolish or do something about these sanctuary cities.
BTW these SC existed since early 80s.

I agree. And why even one Republican voted to kill a bill denying funding to sanctuary cities is mind boggling

That's the point Herewegoagain is trying to make. Governors do this to rile up the base at election time but they also take the poisonous contributions from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce like the good Republicans they are, so it goes nowhere.
 
They have all allowed it to go on.

Oh and don't hold your breath for the Govt. to do anything because both parties are looking for the Hispanic vote.

.

No they don't. Dems can filibuster in the senate and the GOP can't stop them. And of course, obozo can veto any bill congress does pass and the GOP doesn't have the congressional votes to override.
