what is the definition of a sanctuary city or state? I know that Governor goofball stated california is a sanctuary state. therefore, he is governing the state as such. And as such sets precedence to the issue and the suit is therefore very legal. And, we know by video that the mayor of Oakland aided and abetted illegals during the last ice raid. I would have locked her sorry as for harboring criminals.Arizona v. United States, 567 U.S. 387 (2012), was a United States Supreme Court case involving Arizona's S.B. 1070, a state law intended to increase the powers of local law enforcement who wished to enforce federal immigration laws. At issue is whether the law usurps the federal government's authority to regulate immigration laws and enforcement.
Arizona v. United States - Wikipedia
It went to the Supreme Court and SCOTUS found Arizona could not usurp Federal government's authority.
So Calif. refusal to obey Federal ICE activities are taken to SCOTUS and the case will NOT be heard as the
above decision upheld the right of the Federal Government over the State regarding immigration enforcement.
Congress has yet to write a bill and sign into law what is a Sanctuary City. Without a legal approved definition there is no legal way to determine which cities are Sanctuary and which ones aren't. It's arbitrary. Then they would have to write laws and sign them into law regarding what to do with Sanctuary cities. Until then it's just another Republican dog & pony show.
You can't be cited for speeding ticket if there is no written law regarding speeding. Nor would you be forced to pay a fine or penalized without that law.
Now if California did actually interfere into ICE deportations by writing state laws that would inhibit ICE agents from doing their jobs, there may be an issue for them. But Governor Brown is denying those accusations. We'll see?
Governor Responds To Sessions Immigration Lawsuit: "Basically Going To War"“This is basically going to war against the state of California."Governor Brown says Jeff Sessions’ claim that California’s laws are endangering the public is a lie. “Simply, not true. And I call upon him to apologize to the people of California, to bringing the mendacity of Washington to California and trying to insert discord and division.” Sessions announced a lawsuit filed against the state for laws passed last year that he says prevents federal immigration agents from doing their job. A claim the governor denies.
Jeff Sessions has been known to LIE before. Several times under oath.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions may be facing perjury charges.
