Finally a Challenge to Sanctuary Cities

Segment #533

This morning we filed a long overdue lawsuit challenging Los Angeles’ sanctuary policies. My full statement: Today’s lawsuit holds the City of Los Angeles accountable for deliberately obstructing the enforcement of federal immigration law. The United States Constitution’s Supremacy Clause prohibits the City from picking and choosing which federal laws will be enforced and which will not. By assisting removable aliens in evading federal law enforcement, the City’s unlawful and discriminatory ordinance has contributed to a lawless and unsafe environment that this lawsuit will help end.
